DigiTech ASEAN Thailand & AI Connect 2026

⌖ Bangkok · W District

Hosted by Simon

AI & Beers 9 brings AI builders and users together at W District in Bangkok on 15 October 2026 for candid, informal conversations. This ninth edition is designed for people who want to compare real experiences of using AI, not sit through presentations or sales pitches. Hosted by Simon and the AI & Beers community, the meetup runs from 7:00pm to 9:00pm ICT at W District on Sukhumvit Road, Phra Khanong Nuea. What to expect There is no stage, formal agenda or speaker programme. Instead, you can grab a drink, meet other attendees and take part in open conversations about the tools, systems and experiments people are working on right now. Topics are likely to include: - Claude and Codex - AI agents and practical automation - Tools, workflows and ways of working with AI - Approaches that are delivering useful results - Experiments that are not working, and what can be learned from them The emphasis on honest peer discussion makes this a useful setting for exchanging practical observations, asking questions and discovering how others are incorporating AI into their projects. Rather than polished case studies, expect spontaneous conversations shaped by the interests and experiences of the people at the table. Who it’s for The meetup welcomes all experience levels. You can attend if you are just beginning to explore AI, already building agents and automations, or actively refining an established AI workflow. It should particularly appeal to builders, developers, operators and curious users who prefer practical conversation over formal talks. You do not need to prepare anything or deliver a pitch. Simply arrive, get a drink and talk with other people who are using and building with AI in Bangkok. Finding the group Because this is an informal meetup inside W District, the organisers will post a photo of the table in the event’s WhatsApp group when they arrive. The group is also used for meetup updates, so joining it in advance will make the gathering easier to locate. Register for AI & Beers 9 on Meetup

⌖ Bangkok · Treehouse Cafe & Bar

Hosted by Jaume R.

Build AI products people will pay for at this informal builders meetup in Bangkok, taking place on 25 October 2026 at Treehouse Cafe & Bar. From AI idea to paying customer Vibe Coding Products in Bangkok brings together people who are using AI to turn early ideas into useful, launchable products. Hosted by Jaume R., this first edition creates a relaxed setting where builders can show their work, compare approaches and help one another make progress. The meetup runs from 5:00pm to 7:00pm ICT on Sunday, 25 October 2026 at Treehouse Cafe & Bar, 20 Sukhumvit 31 in Watthana. Rather than focusing only on code, the conversation will cover the full journey from deciding what to build to finding the first paying customer. Topics and questions may include: - Choosing an AI product idea worth pursuing - Turning a rough concept into a working prototype - Deciding how and when to launch - Working out what to charge - Finding early users and first customers - Getting feedback on a demo or half-built product - Moving an existing product beyond its current stage Attendees may be building with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another AI development tool. The emphasis is on sharing practical experiences rather than prescribing one particular stack. Who should attend? All stages are welcome. You might arrive with nothing more than an idea, a prototype that only partly works, or a product already earning revenue. You do not need a technical background, and you do not need to have made money from your project. Curiosity, a desire to build something useful and the motivation to keep moving are enough. Bring a demo if you have one, a question you want to explore, or a specific problem that has slowed you down. You can also come simply to meet other locally based AI builders and learn what they are creating. A conversational builders meetup Expect informal, peer-led conversations rather than a formal lecture or highly structured workshop. The format is designed for swapping ideas, receiving direct feedback and discussing both product development and commercial decisions with people who also want to ship. Attendees can additionally use Meetup’s event chat to connect before the session begins. View the event and registration details
