AI Tech & Startup Night x Marketing Partner: Build Club — Chicago

Nomad Global Hub brings together builders, founders, and tech professionals for a night of curated networking and high-impact startup pitches.

With a track record of 235+ events across 23 global cities worldwide, we have welcomed over 5,000 attendees and featured 1,200+ startup pitches on our stages.

We intentionally keep our meetups intimate because the best partnerships happen in focused, high-quality conversations, not in loud, overcrowded halls. This event is capped at up to 40 people to ensure meaningful connections.

What to Expect

Live Tech Startup Pitches: A focused 1-hour session where selected early-stage founders present AI & Tech projects followed by sharp audience Q&A.

High-Quality Networking: Connect with a hand-picked audience of founders, investors, engineers, and tech leaders who value substance over small talk.

Global Exposure: Join a community that bridges 23 tech hubs worldwide, providing you with a network that extends far beyond a single city.

Investor Alignment & Matching: We work with investors across multiple cities to increase visibility of relevant founders. Both founders and investors will be invited to complete a short matching form after registration to align startup projects with specific investor interests.

Founders & Co-Founders looking for peers, feedback, investors and collaborators.

Tech Professionals & Builders seeking a high-quality community.
