Starting an AI-Powered Company: People First, AI as Your Superpower

AI has made it easier than ever to start something of your own. It has also made it harder to know where to begin. If you've had a business idea in the back of your mind, or you're just curious what building one looks like now, this session is for you. Join a small group of entrepreneurially curious professionals for an informal, hands-on Zoom session about starting a company with AI at the core.

We'll sit down with Gregg Spiridellis, who has built companies through every major tech wave, from viral videos on dial-up to streaming to generative AI. He'll share how he and his brother Evan are building their new studio today, and what AI changes about starting a company and what it doesn't. Bring your questions. He'll take them live.

Then you'll try it yourself. Using a simple prompt we'll share, you'll sketch the team for your own business idea: who you'd want beside you, and which roles AI agents could cover at the start. Then you'll meet a few other participants in small groups to compare notes. Expect to jump in. You'll share ideas, try AI on a real problem, and meet other people thinking about what's next.
