AI Cafe x Bengaluru Tech Week

Description

Whether you are a solo founder, working remotely or need a fresh perspective on the problem statement you are at - this is a good place to cowork and connect. Please refer to the profiles of our Breakout Room Hosts to arrive at who's relevant for a conversation that aligns with your work. Expect this 3-hour long coworking session to flow like this: 00:00 - Walk in and buy your own coffee/ bites to keep the neighbourhod coffeeshop in business. Say HI to the person next to you in the queue :) 00:15 - Settle in to work independently on your laptop. Please respect boundaries and do not talk to people unless you are in a breakout room. You can also utilise this time to have a 15-minute 1:1 breakout conversation with one of our Breakout Room Hosts present at the venue. 02:30 - Community circle. Take the spotlight for 3 minutes to share what you are working on, what you can offer and what you need help with. 03:00 - Wrap up with a surprise game and a prize for the winner! Optional: The coffeeshop will be open for the next few hours. You can choose to continue working from here or hop on to another one closeby.
