Women in AI: The Builder's Playbook

​An evening of real lessons from women who are building, shaping, and pushing AI projects forward — and the people who show up to support them.

​Women in AI: Builders & Thinkers is part of the NovaForge AI Venture Lab event series in partnership with AI Ladies Lounge and the support of AI Collective.

​What to expect:

​Three speakers. Three stages of the builder's journey. Real talk, no fluff.

• ​Talk 1 — Build it: Lessons from an AI automation product manager on how to manage, ship, and move projects forward

• ​Talk 2 — Fund it & get loud: How an early-stage founder secured funding and made sure the right people knew about their project

• ​Talk 3 — Scale it & own it: How to grow with intention, build credibility, and make your project stick

​Whether you're a founder, engineer, researcher, or someone who believes representation in tech matters — you'll leave with something actionable.
