AI / Fin Tech Roundtable with LightHouse & Inception
LightHouse is Coming to New York
LightHouse spent the last stretch building a founder community in Boston, and this is our first gathering in the city.
Our co-host is David Gan, Founding General Partner of Inception Capital. Inception backs founders and emerging managers at the inception stage, across frontier technology, onchain financial infrastructure, and high-growth emerging markets, with portfolio companies including Avalanche, Celestia, MegaETH, Nillion, and Skyfire. David will share what he's actually funding right now in AI and fintech, and take questions from the room.
During the evening, you’ll have the opportunity to:
Connect Across the AI and Fintech Stack: Meet a curated group of fifty founders, investors, and operators building in AI, fintech, and financial infrastructure, from New York, Boston, and beyond.
Exchange Ideas with an Active Investor: Join a candid conversation with David Gan, Founding General Partner of Inception Capital, on what is getting funded in AI and fintech right now, what he is passing on, and how he reads the market from the inception stage.
Work Through a Real Problem: Bring one thing you are stuck on, from pricing to compliance to a first hire, and put it to a roundtable of people who have faced the same decision.
Build Relationships That Outlast the Night: Spend the evening in a room small enough for real conversation, where students and first-time builders sit alongside founders a few years further in.
Bridge Boston and New York: Help connect two of the East Coast's strongest founder communities, and tell us what a LightHouse hacker house in New York should look like.
