What you likely need
You'd get the most out of Festival events that put you in the same room as Series A AI investors and fellow Xoogler founders who can fast-track warm intros and co-investment conversations. Roundtables and dinners focused on AI infrastructure, developer tooling, and founder-to-investor brand-building are your highest-leverage formats right now. Hiring and open-source credibility events that tap the Google alumni and Stanford CodeX networks would also compound well given Key AI's rapid headcount growth.
