Mindstone Paris June AI Meetup

Welcome to this Paris AI meetup, organised as a Vivatech side event

Join us during VivaTech 2026, at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, for a practical AI meetup alongside one of Europe’s biggest innovation gatherings. This year marks VivaTech’s 10th anniversary, making it an especially exciting moment to connect around the real-world use of AI. We’re hosting this event together with ITA – Italian Trade Agency, bringing a practical AI perspective rooted in the wider Italian and European tech ecosystem.

  • Unleash your curiosity, fuel your creativity, and expand your network as you connect with fellow AI aficionados, founders, builders and pioneers gathered in Paris for VivaTech.

What you can expect?

Mindstone events consist of three talks covering different aspects:

  • What I Learned Building With LLMs: A technical talk breaking down the process for building a product using AI with real-life learnings and insights.
  • How To Be More Productive Using AI: A practical demo and step-by-step guide on how to use AI to speed up and improve tasks.
  • What Does The Future Look Like With AI?: A theoretical talk on the impact of AI on work, life and society.

As a VivaTech side event, this meetup is designed to complement the energy of the week with a more focused setting for practical discussion, useful ideas, and meaningful conversations, hosted in partnership with ITA – Italian Trade Agency.

After the talks we'll have pizza, drinks, and time to connect with everyone around you.

Don't miss the opportunity to see what's really happening in AI during one of the most exciting weeks in the Paris tech calendar - you'll be surprised at what's already possible today.

We have limited spots available, so make sure you have your VivaTech pass ahead of time to avoid disappointment!

Why Most AI Programmes Stall by Penny
Most AI programmes stall not because the tools are weak, but because organisations mistake training for transformation. Organisations focus on capability transfer, but fail to change the workflow, social permission, and operating environment around the user.
