AI Meetup at Qualcomm
A builder-focused AI meetup for people who want real signal, not generic panel chatter.
We are bringing 3-4 presenters into the room for short, practical talks on what they are building, learning, or shipping right now in AI. Every presentation is capped at 20 minutes, so the night stays sharp, varied, and useful. Expect concrete demos, technical context, and time to talk with other builders after the programming block.
When: Tuesday, May 5, 2026 | 4:30 PM - 7:30 PM PT
Where: Qualcomm, 3165 Kifer Rd, Santa Clara, CA 95051
Who: Hosted by the Builders Collective with Qualcomm
