AI Builders Roundtable: What's Actually Working (And What Isn't)

All of us can agree AI is the future—but the playbook is still being written.

We're hosting an invite-only roundtable for AI builders from across the Greater Bend Area. This event will bring together 30 founders, functional team leaders from companies of all sizes, and advisors for honest conversations about building AI products. We'll share what's actually working, the failures we're learning from, and the practical lessons you won’t find in a LinkedIn post. 30 seats, zero pitches, 100% real talk. $10 all in.

What to Expect

• Curated roundtable discussions
• Practical tips you can bring back to your company and team immediately
• Networking before and after with food, drinks and peers

Why Attend

• Compare notes with builders who share your challenges
• Walk away with real tactics and a stronger peer network
• Shape the collective playbook for leading in Bend’s evolving tech landscape

Who Should Apply
Anyone building with AI full-time.

This is an invitation-only event with a simple application process. We're curating for diverse perspectives and genuine challenges, not just success stories.
