BUILD powered by Lovable with Vernon + Friends
The world is moving fast, and it's easy to feel like you're watching it happen instead of being in it.
Starting a business. Changing careers. Building a product. These used to take a team, a budget, and months. With the right tools and the right room, they now take days.
BUILD exists so you don't have to figure that out alone, or wait for a perfect moment that isn't coming.
How it works
Capped at 25 people. Small enough so that everyone can participate.
Deliberately mixed: founders, career-pivoters, builders, and the AI curious sit in the same groups on purpose. The best unlock usually comes from someone who isn't in your industry or too close to your idea.
No lectures. Each session opens with a 10–15 minute grounding on the game plan, then it's structured work sprints.
Everyone leaves with something completed or having made meaningful progress.
Who this is for
Entrepreneurs building or growing something of their own
People pivoting careers or trying to figure out what's next
Anyone who wants to build with AI, technical background or not
Must be 18+ to attend
Who this isn't for
People who want to sit in the back and absorb content. There is no back of the room here folks!
