AI Labs Live x AWS
AI Labs Live in collaboration with Automat-IT and AWS Startups
where curious AI minds stop watching and start building together
After two hugely successful editions already this year, AI Labs Live is back for edition number three of 2026 — this time together with Automat-IT and AWS for an evening focused on showcasing, experimenting, and connecting with people actively building with AI.
This is not a sit-down-and-passively-watch kind of event.
AI Labs Live is designed to be interactive, practical, and community-driven from the moment you walk into the room.
You’ll meet developers, founders, product teams, creatives, operators, and curious minds all exploring how AI can move from hype into real-world application.
Automat-IT is an AWS partner working hands-on with startups across GenAI, DevOps, and FinOps, helping teams move from experimentation into production. Their team will be part of the evening, making this a great opportunity to connect directly with people actively helping AI startups scale.
AWS Startups supports early-stage companies with infrastructure credits, technical guidance, customer introductions, and go-to-market support, helping founders and builders grow faster with the right resources around them.
We’ll also hear from Joel Kall, founder of Mimicate, who will share insights into world models, AI experimentation, and what it actually looks like to build in this space right now beyond the hype cycle.
the format
17:00 — doors open
Arrive, meet the room, and grab food and drinks kindly provided by Automat-IT.
17:30 — welcome + opening conversation
A quick introduction to the evening, the community, and the people in the room.
18:00 — live demos + founder showcases
See what companies and builders are actually creating with AI right now — from practical workflows to experimental ideas and products in progress.
19:00 — community connection time
This is where the magic usually happens. Meet people building interesting things, exchange ideas, ask questions, show your projects, and have the kinds of conversations that rarely happen in traditional event formats.
20:00 — wrap up
Final conversations, last connections, and probably a few people still deep in AI discussions by the snack table 😅
This event is for people who like to build, experiment, learn publicly, and connect with others doing the same.
Whether you’re deep in AI already or just starting to explore the space, you’re welcome here.
