AI is rewriting the rules for how startups get built, funded, and scaled — and the founders who adapt fastest will define the next decade. Join us at Microsoft's NYC office for a morning with leading investors and operators unpacking what's actually working right now: how founders are winning in an AI-native market, what VCs are betting on, and where the real opportunities are over the next 12–18 months. You'll leave with sharper conviction on where AI is heading, a clearer playbook for building in it, and a room full of people worth knowing.
Hosted by Miguel Martinez (Principal AI Solutions Engineer, Microsoft), the panel features Ashley Ryder (Partner, VamosVentures), Laura N. Montoya (Managing Partner, Accel Impact Ventures), Kelvin Keane (Global Business Development Manager at Microsoft for Startups), and Richard Ortega (AI Applied Research Engineer, stealth AI startup).
This event is for early-stage founders, engineers considering the leap, investors, and operators who want sharp takeaways and real conversations — not recycled AI talking points.
Doors open at 8:30 AM with bagels and coffee, the panel runs 9:30–10:50, and we'll close with rooftop networking until noon.
This event is a part of #NYTechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
