Hi homies,

Get ready for the Super AI ML Summit 2025 — our flagship event returns this fall, and it’s shaping up to be our most dynamic edition yet. 🚀

Hosted in partnership with the NYC Mayor’s Office for International Affairs, NYCEDC, and Civic Hall, this full-day experience will unite the brightest minds in AI and ML — world-class operators, investors, founders, policymakers, and diplomats from big tech, Fortune 500s, and next-gen disruptors.

💡 One of the fun PM keynotes will be on the Championship Mindset — What Elite Athletes Know About Building Winning Organizations.

Featuring NFL legends, including a former New York Giants player, this one-of-a-kind session dives into leadership, resilience, and building high-performance cultures. It’s the only panel not directly about AI — yet one of the most relevant for anyone creating, leading, or scaling something extraordinary (in AI or beyond).

You’ll also hear from a powerhouse lineup of speakers representing a16z, Fireflies.ai, Union Square Ventures, Intel Ventures, Bessemer Venture Partners, Gradient Ventures (Google), Wells Fargo, New York Life Insurance, Google, Salesforce, Microsoft, Anthropic, Fortune, and more.

If you’re a builder, researcher, practitioner, or public leader, this is the Summit you won’t want to miss. 👉 RSVP now to secure your spot!

Interested to volunteer (you can attend for half & volunteer for the other half) and/or do videography (30-45 second Instagram reel) for the summit?  Email [email protected] and [email protected] with the subject line “Super AI ML Summit”.

The technology landscape is evolving faster than ever, and we are bringing together leaders who are navigating the tides of AI, automation, and digital infrastructure for a dinner at a restaurant helmed by Michelin-starred chef.

And while those realities may start with challenges – like securing LLM integrations and managing shadow AI – they also present opportunities. This private dinner brings together CTOs and CISOs to talk openly about what’s really working in their organizations, as well as what isn’t.

This dinner is taking place in a private room, with individualized seating and a seat-change midway, fun facilitated conversations, and ample time for casual conversation and also mingling before and after dinner to maximize connections for everyone.

Invite & Approval: Founders & VCs only

Join us for an inspiring masterclass on navigating product innovation and strategic growth. This session will delve into the journey of 0 to 1, discussing product-market-fit, how to get to your first $1M in revenue/ ARR, and how to secure funding from VCs in today's market.

What Happened Last Week?

How often do you get to hear directly from a partner at one of the world’s most influential venture capital firms — one that has backed visionary founders behind Wiz, Notion, Figma, Revolut, Roblox, and more?

Last week, we hosted an invite-only Private Founders Dinner featuring Jahanvi Sardana, Partner at Index Ventures — a firm managing over $15B in assets and known for supporting category-defining companies from seed to pre-IPO.

The room gathered an exceptional group of founders — each leading startups with $10M–$100M+ in revenue or funding — for an evening of intimate conversation, curated connections, and shared learning. Jahanvi led a candid AMA session on the evolving landscape of AI, enterprise software, and fintech, offering insights into what today’s top investors look for in breakthrough founders.

Huge thanks to 1919 Investment Counsel, Stifel, Justworks and Frank, Rimerman + Co, for making this dinner possible! 

Follow us on Instagram and Twitter and LinkedIn to get up to date on even last-minute events hosted by the community, and also check out photos of past events.

Much love, Edwina
