AI events in New York City, in numbers

In NYC next week. Anything good going on?

This week the rooms with the most people going are Build with AI Meetup (Tuesday) and Zavo Capital Club: Bridging Startup Founders and Investors- Mixer & Dinner (Thursday). Wednesday is the busiest night. The list above runs soonest first, 30 days out, and updates daily.

There's an AI event every night. Which ones are actually worth it?

Two things we'd go by. The meetups people keep coming back to: Flatiron AI Reading Group (FLAIR), Junto Founder Dinner (Hosted by Andrew & Friends) and NYC Consumer Founders – Sushi Happy Hour (Consumer Club x Superwall). The rooms that fill up: Agents & APIs NYC Developer Meetup (281 going), Build with AI Meetup (247 going) and Agent Evaluation Science NYC (82 going). Every listing shows who's hosting.

Which of these can I actually get into?

6 of this week's 22 let anyone sign up. 15 need the host to approve you, and those say so on the list. 1 is full. The private dinners that never get posted aren't here; founders and investors can apply for those on this page.

Do you list the dinners and parties, or just talks?

Both. This month it's mostly parties, talks and dinners, 82% of them after 5pm.

New to NYC. Which events should I go to first?

A meetup that runs every week or two: Flatiron AI Reading Group (FLAIR), Junto Founder Dinner (Hosted by Andrew & Friends) and NYC Consumer Founders – Sushi Happy Hour (Consumer Club x Superwall). The same people come back, so the second time is easier than the first.

Running a meetup in NYC. How do I get it on here?

Add it with the link at the top of the list. If you post on Luma and we already follow your calendar, it shows up on its own within a day.
