Deep Tech Night: Explainable AI
On February 26, we're hosting our first Deep Tech Night of 2026 — and kicking off a new chapter. In collaboration with #ai_berlin and AI Nation.
From now on, Deep Tech Night will take place bimonthly, with each edition centred around a specific CORE topic we’re actively looking to work with startups on. This month’s edition introduces our newest focus area:
Tuning the Mind of AI.
As AI systems move into real-world and regulated environments, understanding how models make decisions, and being able to influence that behaviour, is becoming critical. Deep Tech Night: Explainable AI is for
Startups building AI where explainability and control are not optional, but fundamental.
Researchers looking to connect with like minds. We’ll be joined by an explainable AI researcher sharing insights from the research that forms the basis of our new core topic.
Ecosystem builders and investors looking to engage with teams shaping the next generation of AI systems.
