What AIBoomi Startup Weekend is NOT
Not a chill weekend hackathon; it’s a 24-hour builder sprint to ship an MVP from the venue.
No problem statements; you bring your own idea and build it.
Not a pitch event; it’s a “heads-down, build-first” space. Demo only after you’ve built.
Not a meetup/mixer; don’t just drop by. Come with a plan and leave with a product.
Not for agency pitches / job hunting; it’s for founders, indie builders, and enthusiast founders who want to launch.
What it IS:
A forcing function to start your AI startup
A room full of mentors, infra credits, and operators
24 hours to build → ship → show
