Boston has long been a city for builders - and in the AI era, its combination of world-class research institutions, deep technical talent, and ambitious founders is fueling a new generation of startups. Join HubSpot co-founder Brian Halligan in conversation with Jonathan Lai of a16z for a fireside chat on why there has never been a better time to start a company in Boston, and what makes the region uniquely positioned for the next wave of founders. Afterwards, we’ll bring together a group of founders with strong ties to the Boston ecosystem: Ashwin Gopinath, Co-Founder of Sentra (sentra.app) Philipp Wehn, Co-Founder & CEO of Nexxa.ai (nexxa.ai) Tejas Kulkarni, Co-Founder & CEO of Common Sense Machines (csm.ai) The founders will share their perspectives from the front lines — including the advantages and tradeoffs of building in Boston, how the post-AI era is reshaping startups and founding teams, and how geography impacts company building today. This event will bring together founders, future founders, and the startup community for an evening of conversation and insight into what it means to build in Boston today. __ This event is a part of #BosTechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.
