events and weather in LA
GM IRL! Hope you had a fancy and festive art week last week! This week ETH Denver starts on Friday, so prepare for the avalanche of events that start this week. Check out our list for all the side events and also the main ETH Denver website schedule for more details. There's also Telegram chat groups out there to link up with people while you're on site.
I'm hosting a Founder + Investor brunch on the second for ETH Denver - you can sign up here. You can also come by my house for coworking this friday in LA if you're afraid of the cold.
WHAT'S POPPIN IN LA
monday (2/20)
Sawtelle Japantown celebration - Start the week off going to Japantown. There's discounted eats, events, and more throughout the week. Bring the flyer with you and get discounts on drinks and dinner. I'm obsessed with Japanese curry - get some and send me a photo.
tuesday (2/21)
NFTuesdayLA - Join the weekly NFT meetup on the Eastside LA with Alice Bucknell.
Refik Anadol Live Painting Exhibit - The amazing immersive artist just started their exhibit last week. Suffice it to say: "Anadol’s works use algorithms that digest California environmental data—things like real-time weather, images of national parks and wind forecasts over the ocean—and turn them into colorful, swirling video installations."
wednesday (2/22)
LA Tech Happy Hour - Check out the beach views while you get a chance to meet other entrepreneurs and tech folk in West LA.
Web3 Wednesdays - Where else are you going to meet other web3 people on a Wednesday?
Founders & Funders: Climate, Sustainable Cities, and Environmental Justice - Want to stray off the path tech and into climate change? Check out what the Long Beach Accelerator is up to.
Fundraising Workshop - I'm hosting an ONLINE fundraising workshop! Come by if you're a founder thinking about raising!
thursday (2/23)
Why do people keep booking all their events on Thursdays? Try your best not to have FOMO with everything on Thursday.
Leveraging ChatGPT & LLMs in the Digital Age - Are you scared or are you prepared for AI? In either case, this event might give you a sense of where everyone else is at too.
LA Startup & Tech Mixer 2023 - Mix and meet with other tech folks in LA, naturally.
Young Entrepreneurs Forum - What are the young Asian entrepreneurs up to in LA? Funny you should ask, this answer just might have some answers to that.
Live Networking at ChowNow for Software Engineers and QA - Are you an engineer and want to meet other engineers? Done. Come to Culver City.
IRL Alpha - This weekly debate/panel on where the NFT industry is, news, and just general wild banter is a riot. Come through for the commentary and maybe end up with some alpha.
friday (2/24)
Open Coworking at Launch House - come by for some fun coworking with cool people!
Montecariano Wine Dinner - Take a load off before the weekend and go for something without the internet. How about a wine dinner with a great chef on a Friday night?
saturday (2/25)
Launch House Garage Sale + BBQ - We're getting rid of a few things at the house (desks, monitors, etc). Stop by if you want to pick something up or hang out with some cool folks for some daytime fun.
Arsham Auto Motive at Petersen Automative Museum - Love cars? Check out this new exhibition which takes a philosophical look at cars in society, in addition to checking out the whole museum.
sunday (2/26)
Coded: Art Enters the Computer Age - If you're in tech in LA, you can't resist going to Coded, an exhibit that digs into the very beginnings of digital art.
Jennifer Chen: No Evil - And then pair Coded with Jennifer Chen's exhibit that looks at the far future of technology and humanity. It makes for a weekend that is as science fiction as you can get.
