What is Buildup Over Coffee?
Buildup Over Coffee is an invite-only meetup from ATLAS Online PowerSkill. It's for people who would rather have a real conversation than sit through another panel.
The format is simple: one table, coffee on us, and a host who works on AI, Brand and growth every day. You ask what you actually want to know and get a straight answer. By the end of the evening you'll also know a room full of people worth staying in touch with.
Come for the coffee. Stay for the build.
What we'll talk about
The conversation will follow the room, but it will probably cover:
How brands are really using AI to grow right now — what’s working, what’s noise
Building a brand and a growth engine with a lean, AI-first team
The playbooks breaking out in 2026 — and the ones quietly dying
Where AI drives growth, and where it still comes down to your judgment
Who should come
Founders, growth and marketing leads, product managers, and professionals who are building a company, a team, or their own next chapter, and want AI to help them do it.
If you'd rather trade ideas than business cards, you'll fit right in.
Your host: Sneha Basu Roy
Sneha builds brand and growth at Google, where she’s spent years turning AI from buzzword into the thing that actually moves the needle. She’s seen what works across scales most marketers only read about — and has sharp, unfiltered opinions on what brands should (and shouldn’t) be doing with AI right now.
Why a waitlist?
Good conversations need a small room. We cap every edition at 25 people and choose a mix of backgrounds so that each seat adds something to the discussion.
Join the waitlist and answer two quick questions. We'll confirm seats by Friday, 16 October. You'll get a confirmation from us, and until then your seat is not final.
