Bay Area Unit Unconference & Party

​Bring a question you can’t stop thinking about. Find your people. Keep the conversation going.

​Join founders, builders, researchers, artists, and curious minds in the Berkeley Hills for an evening shaped by the people in the room.

​We’ll start with quick introductions, then spread out into small conversations across six spaces. Four rounds. Twenty minutes each. Up to 24 sessions exploring whatever sparks our collective curiosity: AI, blockchain, neuroscience, creativity, ownership, or an unexpected idea you bring.

​Host a discussion, share a demo, explore a question, or join a conversation. No polished presentation needed. Move freely between sessions whenever something else catches your interest.

​At 9 PM, the sessions turn into a party. Stay until late.

​Want to host one of the 24 discussions?

​What’s a question, idea, or topic you’d love to explore with a small group? Tell us when you RSVP. Each discussion lasts 20 minutes, and we’ll select and schedule sessions across four rounds. You’re equally welcome to come curious and join in.
