Claude Code Workshop with Tenex - NYC

New York, NY, New York City, United States
In person

Learn to orchestrate AI agents that write and ship code for you. Claude Code is already changing how the best engineering teams ship. This workshop, presented with Tenex, is a chance to build with it directly — not watch a demo, not sit through slides about it. You'll leave having shipped something real, with a working sense of how to bring this back to your own team. We'll spend a little time on context — how Claude Code fits into modern engineering workflows and where teams are seeing the biggest wins. Then the slides go away, and you're at a build station with Anthropic and Tenex beside you, orchestrating agents that write and ship code while you direct the work. Why attend Ship real output. Your agents write the code — you direct them. You'll leave with something you actually built, not a slide deck about what's possible. See best practices in action. Learn how Claude Code fits into enterprise workflows, from the people who deploy it at scale. Get direct support. Live help at every table from Anthropic engineers and Tenex partners — no one gets stuck on an error alone. Build your network. Spend the afternoon with technical leaders wrestling with the same questions you are. Who should attend Engineering Leaders — EMs, VPs, CTOs, Platform Leads, Principal Engineers Business Leaders — CPOs, Digital Transformation, senior AI sponsors, PMs You don't need to be an engineer. If you're making decisions about AI investment or setting strategy, understanding what Claude Code actually does is the edge. Agenda 9:00 AM - 9:30 AM: Registration & setup support 9:30 AM - 9:45 AM: Welcome 9:45 AM - 11:15 AM: Claude Code overview, demo 11:15 AM - 12:00 PM: Build session: hands-on with Claude Code What to bring Your laptop — Basic comfort with a terminal or code editor is helpful but not required — you'll be directing AI agents and building alongside them, and our team supports you the whole way.

Prototyping in Public: Where Art and Science Get Tested on the Gallery Floor

The National Arts Club, New York City, United States · Startup Grind NYC
In person

What if a museum ran like a lab, with the experiment still in progress? Ann Neumann is Director of Galleries and Exhibitions at the MIT Museum. Her question for the evening: can a museum serve as infrastructure for public experimentation, a place where visitors take part in the work rather than just walk through it? If you build products, run pilots, or spend your days deciding what's ready to put in front of real people, this is a look at how one of the best-known science museums handles prototyping in public. In collaboration with the National Arts Club and its Art and Technology Committee, Ann will walk through the interactive projects she's shepherded at the MIT Museum. Each one works as a prototype for engaging the public with technologies like CRISPR, machine learning, and sensory neuroscience. Reserve your spot and arrive early. Space is limited. Founded in 1898, the National Arts Club is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a mission to stimulate, foster, and promote public interest in the arts and to educate the American people in the fine arts. Annually, the Club offers more than 150 free programs—both in-person and virtually—to the public, including exhibitions, theatrical and musical performances, lectures, and readings, attracting an audience of over 30,000 in-person visitors and thousands more online.
