Every AI company eventually runs into the same wall: the model works, but the infrastructure around it doesn't. Data isn't ready, compute is expensive and underused, and the tooling for running AI in production is still being invented. The Infrastructure AI Still Needs brings together founders building that missing layer and investors backing it. The panel: Founder and CEO of Activeloop, the database for AI, built for the multimodal data models run on. Founder of Wirestock, which turns creator content into licensed AI training data. Founder and CEO of Campfire, the AI-native ERP rebuilding accounting for fast-growing companies. A partner from a leading venture firm, to be announced. Moderated by Sergey Dean, General Partner at Orion VC. What we'll dig into: - Where is the real bottleneck today: data, compute, or tooling? - What does infrastructure look like once agents move into production? - Which infra bets are investors making now, and which ones are they avoiding? After the panel, stay to meet the speakers and connect with AI founders, CTOs, infrastructure engineers and enterprise AI leaders. Space is limited, and RSVPs are reviewed. Hosted by Orion VC, a San Francisco pre-seed fund investing in AI infrastructure, vertical AI and physical AI. Special thanks to the Consulate General of Georgia in San Francisco for hosting. This event is a part of #SFTechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com
