Qwen Meetup Singapore

​[New Date Alert!]

Join the Qwen Community Meetup in Singapore! 🌏✨

​Hey builders, tinkerers, and AI-curious folks—this one’s for you!

​We’re bringing the Qwen community together in Singapore for our first local meetup, and it’s going to be a great chance to connect, share ideas, and see what people are actually building with Qwen—whether you're playing with the open-source models, prototyping in Model Studio, or running mission-critical workloads with Qwen’s commercial offerings like Qwen-Max or Qwen-Plus.

​And speaking of real-world performance—big congrats to the Qwen team for taking the top spot in Season 1 of Alpha Arena! It was impressive to see Qwen-3 MAX navigate those unpredictable, high-stakes market simulations with such precision. (Season 1.5? We’re already hyped. 🚀)

​This meetup is all about you:

• ​Have you built a side project using Qwen APIs?

• ​Tried prompt engineering or fine-tuning in Model Studio?

• ​Compared open-source vs. hosted models for your use case?

• ​Or just want to learn what’s possible?

​We’d love to hear from you—whether it’s a quick 5-minute demo, a lightning talk, or even just a topic you think we should cover.

​What’s in store:
☕ Great conversations
🤝 Chances to meet fellow developers, founders, and AI practitioners
💡 Practical insights—not just theory, but what works (and what doesn’t!)
🌏 A space for both open-source explorers and those using Qwen in production

​No matter your background or experience level—you’re welcome.
