We are organizing a chill build session for people making cool things with AI. Come for the co-working, stay for the drinks, demos, and good company.
// about us
We are 886 Studios, a Taiwan-based venture firm running an accelerator program called ikigai Launchpad, and we are currently looking for ambitious builders to join our next cohort.
Spaces for this event are limited, and we will prioritize builders.
// about the event
Join 886 Studios and Codex for a relaxed summer evening of building, co-working, drinks, and meeting people working on interesting projects.
Bring your laptop, something you are building, or just an idea you want to explore. Spend the evening working alongside founders, engineers, designers, and curious builders using AI to create new products.
Think beach club energy 🌴, but with more laptops and slightly more debugging.
Members of the 886 Studios team and the Codex community will be around to share ideas, help troubleshoot, and connect you with other people working on similar problems.
No pressure, no competition, and no need to ship anything by the end of the night. Just come build, meet people, and enjoy a few drinks.
