​🚀 The Convergence: Investors & Builders Meetup Networking | VCs/Family Offices AI & Web3

​💡 About This Must-Attend Event

​Welcome to the nexus of innovation and capital! 🌐

​This is not just another side event; this is the essential, high-leverage networking session during ETHDenver 2026 where serious money meets foundational technology. We are meticulously curating an exclusive morning focused on the monumental convergence of Artificial Intelligence and Decentralized Web3 Infrastructure.

​As Denver transforms into "New BUIDL City," the noise can be overwhelming. We are providing the signal. If you are a Visionary Builder forging the next generation of agentic protocols, or a Venture Capitalist (VC) / Family Office actively deploying capital into the future of the Ethereum ecosystem, this is your mandatory stop. Escape the chaotic hackathon floor and step into a focused, professional environment designed specifically for due diligence, strategic partnerships, and qualified deal flow.

​Our goal is simple: to facilitate the connections that will result in the next wave of unicorn projects. Expect high-quality conversations, not small talk.

​Who We Are Bringing Together (The Vetting Process): We are strictly vetting attendees to ensure a high-quality, relevant crowd:

• ​Venture Capitalists (VCs) & Fund Managers: Focusing on early-stage and growth investments in AI infrastructure, Decentralized Compute (DePIN), and ZK-ML solutions.

• ​Family Offices & Institutional Investors: Seeking strategic allocations, direct investments, and bespoke opportunities in the "Agentic Economy" and institutional-grade DeFi.

• ​Elite Founders & Technical Builders: Teams with established traction or breakthrough concepts in Generative AI on-chain, Decentralized Science (DeSci), and modular Ethereum architecture.
