Join a curated group of B2B software founders for a relaxed afternoon at Alegio Chocolaté / Claudio Corallo in Palo Alto
You will learn their story and the journey of the most unique chocolate in the world; not because it is the only true-tree-bean-to-bar made chocolate, but also because it is the most pure chocolate available today and for the first time ever offered to the American public.
Small room. No panels. Just good chocolate and a room worth talking to.

[9/6 update: we’ve received more than 3× the RSVPs we have room for 🥹🤍 We only have a few spots left. If you’d still love to join us, follow @blinkko_labs and DM us the full name you registered with so we can prioritize your RSVP. Hope to see you Tuesday! ] Meet Blinkko, a tiny companion for discovering the world around you. Blinkko is a small creature that sits on your shoulder. It glows, reacts, and goes where you go. The app turns the city into a map of places, prompts, and light left by other people. We’re showing Blinkko in person for the first time in US. Come meet the device, try the app, and spend an evening with the people building the next interface between humans and the physical world. This evening is part product reveal, part community gathering, and part live demo experience. You’ll get to see how Blinkko works, explore the story behind the product, and move through interactive stations designed around curiosity, memory, place, and connection. What to expect: See Blinkko in person before its public launch Try the device and app through live demo stations Explore earlier prototypes and the product journey Add your favorite Bay Area hidden gems to a shared community wall Customize a Blinkko tote Create launch-day content at the Creator Booth Meet creators, builders, investors, press, and friends of the Blinkko community We have a nice space: 🗓 September 8, 2026, 6:00–9:00 PM 🍷 light refreshments only, demos, and good vibes Agenda: 6:00 PM — Arrival, and Blinkko TVC 6:45 PM — Founder welcome 6:50 PM — Product reveal and launch remarks 7:10 PM — Q&A 7:30 PM — Curated networking and live demo stations 9:00 PM — Event close Learn more: https://www.blinkko.co Join the community: https://discord.gg/D8X43hArA7
Join Arize on September 9 at Corgi Cafe for The Corgi Cup, an RC car racing tournament built around the same problem AI teams face in production: spotting the pattern behind a bad run before it happens again. Between races, see Signal in action. Signal is Arize’s always-on managed agent SRE, continuously analyzing production traces to surface recurring and emerging failure patterns. It turns those patterns into prioritized investigations with the evidence teams need to understand what happened, how often it is happening, and what deserves attention next. The goal is the same on the track and in production: learn from every run and make the next one better. Come race, dig into Signal at the demo station, and compare notes with other teams operating agents in production. There will also be a grand prize for the fastest team. No racing experience required (but a competitive eval mindset will definitely help).
Overview This meetup features presentations on the newly announced NVIDIA Nemotron Lightning and then jump into the Developer Live Agent Gauntlet. Featured presentations NVIDIA Nemotron Lightning — Learn how NVIDIA’s newest Nemotron advancements can help developers build faster, more capable, and efficient AI applications. Special event: Developer Live Agent Gauntlet Can your agent explore the unknown? Get access to a new agent test platform for a chance to win NVIDIA prize packs. Your mission is to build an agent capable of dynamic exploration using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). At kickoff, your agent will connect to a “Black Box” MCP server filled with hidden tools, unknown functions, and encrypted data. Challenges will be across four domains: Text, Image, Audio and Video. Your agent won’t know what’s inside. It will need to: Explore the server dynamically Identify and use available tools Uncover hidden functions and encrypted data Solve a series of challenges nested within the architecture Refreshments will be provided, so come hungry for knowledge—and maybe a snack or two.

The Frontier Research Club is a curated forum for rigorous, technical discussion at the frontier of AI. We convene researchers from the frontier labs, Stanford, Berkeley, and the teams building in production to examine concrete work — papers, methods, and results — with a bias toward assumptions, evaluation methodology, failure modes, and what would count as convincing evidence. Each session features 2–3 talks selected for rigor and discussion value. Presentations are intentionally brief so the majority of time is reserved for questions and critique. Papers and supporting materials are shared in advance to ensure a high-baseline conversation. Agenda 5:30pm: Doors open 5:30pm – 6:30pm: Networking + light dinner 6:30pm – 8:00pm: Research presentations + discussion 8:00pm – 8:30pm: Networking Presenters & topics Talk 1: TBA Talk 2: TBA Want to present your work? If you have a research paper you’d like to discuss at one of our next sessions, please submit it for consideration. Submit your paper here! Who should attend Robotics researchers and research engineers People training or deploying policies on real hardware — manipulation, humanoids, VLA, sim-to-real, world models Controls, safety, and verification people working on what it takes to trust an autonomous system Founders and engineers building tooling for robot data, simulation, and evaluation Capacity is limited.
