AI GTM Night at The Art of SF
AI GTM Night: Traction Is the New Moat
Step inside a beautiful San Francisco art gallery for an evening focused on how AI startups move from MVP to traction, distribution, revenue, and scale.
AI has made it easier than ever to build software. A small team can now ship an MVP in days that used to take months.
But that also means building is no longer enough.
The next generation of AI software companies will not win because they had the best idea or raised the most money. They will win because they can get users, create demand, build trust, move fast, and scale distribution before everyone else catches up.
Join us July 30th for AI GTM Night, an evening bringing together AI founders, viral growth operators, GTM leaders, investors, and builders to unpack what actually works after the MVP.
This event is for people building, funding, or scaling AI-native software companies.
Fireside Chat
A high-signal conversation with AI founders and GTM operators on what it takes to turn a product into momentum.
Topics include:
Why the MVP is no longer the moat
How AI startups get their first users
Viral GTM and internet-native distribution
Founder-led sales and early customer obsession
What investors look for beyond the idea
How small teams can scale faster with AI
Speaker Announcements
Speakers will be announced soon.
We are curating founders, operators, and investors with real experience in AI, software, GTM, viral growth, founder-led sales, and distribution.
Startup Showcase & Demo Booths
Select AI startups will have the opportunity to showcase their products live.
This is not the main stage focus of the event. The core programming is built around speakers, operators, and GTM conversations.
Demo booths and showcase opportunities are designed for founders who want visibility in front of investors, operators, and other high-signal builders.
Founders building across AI software, agents, dev tools, GTM tools, vertical SaaS, consumer AI, infrastructure, and other high-growth categories are invited to apply.
