Build Club

About this event

Melbourne's two largest AI Communities are coming together to bring you a fantastic day of building and co-working!! This event is great for those who want to work on their AI products, see what others are building, get to know Melbourne's awesome AI community more, and just hang out and have a great time! What happens on the day Note: All of these are completely optional! If you'd prefer to just knuckle down and get some work done, you're welcome to do that. 10AM-10:30AM: Arrival and intros. This is a chance to introduce yourself and get to know the other attendees 10:30AM-11:30AM: Demos A tradition of Build Club days, and one we're sure the MLAI members will love - show us what you're working on!! No one has to do any demos, but we highly recommend showing off what you're working on! It's a great way to get feedback, advice, and inspiration from others! 12:30PM: Group Lunch With plenty of great places nearby, we usually grab lunch as a large group 1PM Onwards: Co-working This is the coworking part of the day - where people can buckle on down and get some serious work done. The event is hosted in the State Library's fantastic StartSpace. StartSpace is a community and coworking hub at the State Library Victoria, designed to support early-stage founders and entrepreneurs. They provide access to resources, mentoring, and networking opportunities to help turn business ideas into reality. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to grow, StartSpace offers a vibrant environment to connect, learn, and thrive. Anyone can apply to Startspace to access the space for free, and we at Build Club can't recommend it enough! Non-StartSpace members are only allowed access for the first until 2PM, but are free to continue to work in the public work spaces afterwards. We recommend arriving at 10AM to get the most out of the day, but you're welcome to come in and out as needed. Hope to see you there!
