LA Tech Week - Two Female Tech Founders’ Journeys in the Age of AI
About
LA Tech Week: Two Female Founders’ Journeys in the Age of AI
This event brings together two female founders for an evening of personal stories, product insights, and conversations about the future of human-centered AI.
You’ll hear from Julia Cai, founder of Banjo AI and featured by CHIEF's Founder's Circle, and Lucy Chen, an entrepreneur building as a One-Person Company (OPC) and a founding member of SiliconRoshi AI Academy. Both will share their entrepreneurial journeys, lessons learned, and perspectives on building in the age of AI.
While much of the AI world is focused on productivity and automation, we’ll explore a different question:
Can technology help people feel more fulfilled, connected, and intentional in everyday life?
