Tea & Jam: Founders, Get Ready for AI Evolution
JDI’s first Tea & Jam will host a private gathering designed for founders at revenue-generating startups who are scaling up and want to stay ahead of the curve in an AI-disrupted world.
This isn’t about flashy tools. It’s about building product moats, rethinking team structures, and embedding AI in ways that drive value and are hard to copy.
Hosted with knowledge experts, this facilitated roundtable is a chance to learn together, share challenges, and co-create a community playbook that captures the best thinking from real operators.
🧠 What to expect:
- Candid conversations with fellow scale-stage founders and builders
- Facilitated insight jams focused on real-world AI adoption and defensibility
- New connections over tea in a relaxed, community oriented environment
All discussions are recorded and synthesised into a community playbook, ensuring insights extend beyond the room and drive practical action across the ecosystem.
If you’re building beyond MVP, facing real operational complexity, and want to ensure your product isn’t outpaced by commoditized AI, this is your space to jam.
