AIMeetup is a globally distributed nonprofit connecting AI builders, researchers, and curious minds through in-person meetups. Everything we do is open, community-run, and free to join.
The internet made AI global — we're making it local. Real rooms, real conversations, real friendships.
Every event is free or at-cost. No pay-to-speak, no gated content. Sponsors support the community, not the other way around.
We fund student chapters, translate materials into 14 languages, and help anyone start a chapter in their city.
