​GenAI Builders Meetup - Malaysia (ft. Qwen)

​🗓 Monday, 6 April 2026
⏰ 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM (GMT+8)
📍 Chin Hin Group (details will be shared upon approval)

​​🤝 Co hosted by GenAI Fund, Qwen and Chin Hin Group

​As the global AI narrative shifts, a new "default" is emerging for builders in the region. We are bringing together a curated group of AI founders, engineers, and enterprise architects for an afternoon centered on the most talked-about open-source move in Asia: Qwen by Alibaba Cloud.

​This meetup is about the people actually deploying. No sales pitches. No slide-deck theory. Just honest technical sharing and practical connections as we redefine the ASEAN AI playbook together.

​Why attend?

• ​🤝 Meet the Qwen and Chin Hin Group Team: You'll get direct access to Qwen's Lead Solutions Architects and GTM heads to discuss real-world deployment, fine-tuning, and the roadmap for the Qwen model family. You'll also have the opportunity to connect with innovation decision-makers from Chin Hin Group, one of Malaysia's largest builder conglomerates, as they explore how AI is shaping the future of construction, property development, and manufacturing..

• ​👨‍💻 Builders Only: Everyone in the room is actively building or deploying. Whether you are moving off proprietary APIs or optimizing open-source infrastructure, come share your progress and the hurdles you’re clearing.

• ​⭐ Global Intelligence, Regional Network: Tap into a network that spans the top AI labs and startups in SEA. With massive curiosity growing around regionalized models, this is where you find the partners and talent currently leading the shift.
