AI Builders Night
Join us for the September AI Builders Night, hosted by AwardSpring.
AI Builders Night is a casual, hands-on gathering for people building, deploying, and investing in the next generation of AI products. It’s a place to meet other practitioners, see what people are actually shipping, and trade notes on the challenges that show up when AI moves from prototype to production.
We’ll feature a small number of short, practical demos from builders working with LLMs and generative AI. Expect real implementations across AI products, agentic workflows, developer tools, infrastructure, and more - presented in a relaxed happy-hour atmosphere with plenty of time to meet people and talk shop.
AI Builders Nigh is for anyone who wants to be part of the growing Chicago AI community:
AI builders, engineers, and product people who want to meet like-minded practitioners, find collaborators, discover new tools, or connect with companies looking for AI talent.
Founders and companies building AI teams who want to meet engineers and builders already working hands-on with the technology.
Investors and operators who want a closer look at what practitioners are building, where the hard problems are, and what’s moving from experimentation into real-world use.
Developers exploring AI who want to learn from people further down the path and get a practical view of the tools, patterns, and approaches being used today.
Whether you’re building your first AI feature or operating systems in production, come meet the people pushing the space forward.
