Every invitation is personal. We would be glad to have your perspective in the room.

WHY THIS ROOM

Beyond the technology.
Into the company.

AI makes it faster to ship a product. Building a lasting company still demands harder choices: what to build, who to hire, how to reach customers, and where your advantage will come from.

This room brings together AI founders and senior operators leading teams of 15–100 — people making those decisions every day, not discussing them from a distance.

With 30 personally invited guests, there is space to move beyond introductions: compare decisions, question assumptions, and meet peers whose experience can change how you approach your own company.

  • 30 invited guests

    A deliberately small group, selected for the perspectives they bring.

  • Teams of 15–100

    AI startup founders and senior operators building through the realities of growth.

  • Mumbai · a private setting

    Venue and final timing shared directly with confirmed guests.

  • A hosted evening

    A guest-led session, peer conversations, food and beverages.

THE CONVERSATION

Ideas worth bringing
back to your company.

The evening opens with a guest-led session on the decisions shaping AI companies: how teams operate, how businesses scale, and what makes an advantage last. Expect practical perspectives and room to challenge them.

We are refining the session around the people attending. 2 proposed directions:

Illustrative session concept: a presenter beside a projection screen addressing founders in U-shaped seating inside a dark auditorium
Illustrative view from the speaker's position: founders and operators seated in rows around the room, listening and taking notes

These are proposed themes, not a confirmed agenda. The final session will reflect the questions most relevant to the room.

FOOD, BEVERAGES & PEER CONVERSATIONS

The conversation continues
when the session ends.

The session starts the conversation. Time together makes it personal.

Over food and beverages, compare notes on the decisions behind the headlines: hiring the right people, finding distribution, earning customer trust, and putting AI to work inside your company.

Leave with fresh perspectives, useful connections, and conversations you want to continue.

If you cannot make it, we would still value a recommendation for another founder or operator who should be part of the room.

HOSTED BY WORKBUDI

Run your working day from WorkBudi.

Not another app in the pile — the place the work itself lives, with Robin, an AI chief of staff, reading it, working out what matters, and carrying it through.

Your channels stay. The work moves here.

  • Gmail
  • Outlook
  • Slack
  • Teams
  • Calendar
  • Meet
  • WhatsApp

Robin· just now

3 things need you. 2 can wait. 1 is already handled.

WorkBudi is an intelligent work OS built around a new way of working: understand what matters, organise what you own, and move the work forward in the same place.

WorkBudi is an independent home for the work, not another layer of notifications. Understanding and execution sit in one place: what happened, what it means, what you’re responsible for, and the thing that actually needs doing next.

People, conversations, projects, tasks, decisions and documents each keep their own history, and their link back to where they came from. Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Teams, WhatsApp and your calendar stay the channels your relationships run on — the work they feed lands here, in one place. Robin reads all of it, works out what matters, and helps get it done: from a reply that needs your voice to the decision a meeting left hanging.

Slack tells you what people said.WorkBudi tells you what that means for the work.
