North America focus
Members are primarily in US time zones
WHO SHOULD APPLY
Our membership is a curated selection of some of the best business and technology entrepreneurs in the US. Members are successful founders or senior executives with deep domain or functional expertise in hi-tech startups. Some of them are AI scientists, many of them are key personnel with a lucrative exit or IPO under their belts. Even if they are not currently working in a startup, they share a common interest in all things start-up and have the soul of an entrepreneur. Enrollment in AI Link is free, but is limited to US time-zones.
COMMUNITY GUIDELINES
Connect generously
A community only gets stronger and more valuable to each of us as we contribute and spark connections with other members. When people introduce themselves, say hello. Find people near you or like you. Introduce yourself and say hello.
Be kind and respectful
Things can be easily lost in translation over messaging platforms. We assume positive intent in all interactions and treat our peers with professionalism and respect.
Share your expertise
We collaborate together and share experience and build things together. Add your stories, experiences, and ideas to the discussions to make your time here as valuable as possible.
Relationships, not transactions
This is a place to make new connections and learn from fellow brilliant minds, not to hawk your product. You are welcome to share news about your company, but do it in a, “I’m developing X and would love to talk with SMEs in this area” style instead of a “buy now and we’ll throw in a set of steak knives!” hard sell.
