About Event
Join Startup Grind CEO Derek Andersen in a rare fireside chat with Waseem Alshikh, founder of Writer, one of the most successful enterprise AI startups in the world. This conversation pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build with AI from day one—before the hype, before the trend, and before everyone had a chatbot.
Expect to learn:
🔥 How to build a truly AI-native company
📈 What early product bets actually paid off
💰 Fundraising lessons for AI startups
🚀 The real GTM moves that win enterprise customers
Whether you’re still validating your idea or scaling your Series A, this is the conversation you don’t want to miss.
Lovely venue, lovely nibbles and lovely connections.
Location
CANOPY Jackson Square, 595 Pacific Avenue, San Francisco, 94133
