AIBoomi Annual 2026
If you are at AIBoomi (formerly SaaSBoomi) annual, you’re amongst friends.
Founders, Operators, Investors, Ecosystem Partners, and Volunteers.
Perhaps the most high-signal confluence of Founders in the Indian startup ecosystem.
SaaSBoomi has been a thriving community of Founders and Volunteers since the last decade.
The Annual is a 2 day event that most Founders never like to miss.
This year and beyond, SaaSBoomi is AIBoomi, an ode to the all-encompassing impact of AI in our lives.
If this is your first Annual, welcome. You are likely to experience an event like no other.
This year’s theme is #BuildWhatsNext – an apt focus since Industries, Societies and Workstreams are being reimagined with the advent of AI.
Learning, Networking and Sharing
An incredible aspect of AIBoomi Annual is that you rub shoulders with Founders and Operators who have been at it with their startups, through the thick and thin!
The sessions will showcase Founders who are unafraid to be vulnerable and sharing lessons in a prolific way.
Don’t lose any moment to learn, network and share.
As I always say, as a Founder, you will always find other Founders whose businesses are ahead of you, that you can learn from. Even if you’re at the earliest stages of your startup journey, you’ll find someone that can learn from your experience, expertise or points of view.
Make the most of these 2 days by being willing to share with, network with, and learn from one another.
Purposeful Networking
As a Founder, your time, energy and focus are of strategic value and importance to your startup.
I often tell Founders that “a Founder’s time is perhaps THE most precious perishable commodity” in a startup.
Guard your time and energy wisely.
And don’t network just for the sake of networking – every interaction should give you additional lessons, an opportunity to refine your own story/narrative/pitch, a potential prospect, or partner, or investor.
It is after times like these, that your ability to keep these notes, and follow through effectively with context become highly valuable.
Unless you already have an existing habit or a system or a tool, I’d encourage you to use B2Brain to capture conversation insights and book follow up meeting with people whom you have interesting conversations with.
I will be at the event too, so if you’d like to catch up, ping me via the AIBoomiXP app or on Linkedin.
