Founders & Funders Deep Dive | Seattle AI Week Kickoff

Kick off Seattle AI Week with the coldest networking event on the calendar. 🫧

​Five days of conference rooms begin Monday. On Sunday morning, AI founders, investors, healthcare AI leaders, and technology operators are heading to Alki instead.

​

No pitches. No panels. No slide decks.

​

Just a dive, post-dive food and drinks, and good conversations.

​

Two ways to join

​Divers: Buddy up and dive at Alki Junkyard in West Seattle, home to sea pens, tiny critters, and the occasional octopus.

​Non-divers: Meet us on the beach for the post-dive hang and snacks. That's where most of the conversation happens.

​

For divers

• ​Open Water certification or higher (confirmed at registration)
• ​This is a buddy dive, not a guided tour. You should be comfortable planning and diving a local shore site with your buddy.
• ​Water temperature will be around 48–52°F, so come prepared.
• ​Bring your own gear, or arrange a rental in advance. Adam can help facilitate this.

​

Schedule

• ​9:00 AM: Divers arrive, buddy up, gear up
• ​9:45 AM: Splash!
• ​10:30 AM: Non-divers arrive. Hot drinks, snacks, and stories with the divers.
• ​11:45 AM: Splash!
• ​12:30 PM: Divers out. Hot cider, cocoa, and conversation for everyone.
• ​~2:00 PM: Wrap, with plenty of time to get home to watch the Seahawks smoke the Chiefs

​

If weather or water conditions don't cooperate, we'll move to Sunday, Nov. 1.

​

Come build a bigger pod. 🤿
