About the event

A gathering for people who use AI to build software that helps, not to tick the AI box.

We're covering the whole build, end to end: how AI is changing the way digital products get made, how to build products with AI at their core, when you can let machines start building machines, how to get vibecoded apps production-ready, and what it all means for the business.

Expect founders, C-levels, and builders from the Czech AI scene in one room. Curated and invite-first, not just anybody.
