**What does it take to build one of the most respected AI product startups—without chasing the hype?**

Join over 100 product leaders for an intimate fireside chat with [Kareem Amin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kareemamin/), Co-founder/CEO of [Clay](https://www.clay.com/). Kareem has built Clay into a breakout tool for GTM teams, used by OpenAI, Canva, and Ramp, and recently raised a $40M Series B expansion at a $1.25B valuation.

Hear the story of how Clay evolved from a horizontal low-code platform to a GTM-specific vertical product and one of the AI “application layer” startups that’s breaking through.

If you’re thinking about starting an AI startup or incorporating AI into your product or growth teams, Kareem is one of the most insightful leaders to learn from.

Mingle with the best product people in NYC at the welcoming Fractal Tech Williamsburg space, with free food and drinks.
