What's actually working for AI products right now?
Hosted by Catalyst Bay, AScaleX, & Brex

Most AI events are vendors talking about their own product. This one is the people responsible for growth at AI companies talking about what actually moved numbers.

A panel, a round table, & a long happy hour. 80 people 40 founders + 40 GTM leaders, so you will actually talk to everyone.

The panel: Going to market when the category is contested, & nobody has won it yet. How to find demand before you have anything to sell. What positioning survives contact with real buyers. How to pick first customers for distribution rather than revenue.

The round table: An open conversation around the GTM challenges people in the room are working through right now. Bring a question, compare approaches, & hear how other founders & operators are thinking about demand, positioning, customers, & distribution.

Happy hour: Food & drinks, & the part of the evening where the useful conversations happen.

Who this is for

GTM leads & heads of growth at AI companies

Founders still running go-to-market themselves

First marketing & sales hires at AI startups

Investors who spend their time on portfolio distribution

What you leave with: A positioning read on your own product from people who have done it. Two or three tactics you can run next week. And a short list of people worth following up with.
