Bring your laptop, pull up a chair, work on your AI project around others doing the same.

eChai Ventures and Upsquare are launching AI Actions Lab, a joint initiative to help founders, businesses, industries, professionals, and institutions across India explore and adopt AI in their work.

As part of this program, AI Cafe meets every Friday from 4 to 7 PM at House of Starts in Ahmedabad. The format is informal and self-directed: attendees bring laptops and work on their own projects while surrounded by others interested in artificial intelligence. Chai and cookies on the house. Bring your laptop. Wi-Fi is sorted. Pull up a chair and get to work.

The event accommodates various activities. shipping products, learning new tools, running experiments, or figuring out where AI fits into one's business. Natural conversations emerge, with participants sharing resources, swapping tools, and helping debug challenges. Toward the session's end, some attendees optionally showcase demos and works in progress.

This gathering suits anyone in Ahmedabad interested in discussing, meeting, and connecting with people exploring artificial intelligence. whether beginners, active builders, students, or seasoned professionals.
