Qwen Conference 2026

⌖ Singapore · EHL Campus (Singapore)

Hosted by Mindstone

Explore practical AI, LLM product building and AI productivity at Mindstone’s free monthly meetup in Singapore on 4 November 2026. Mindstone’s November meetup brings the city’s AI community together to examine what people are building today, how artificial intelligence can improve everyday work, and where the technology may lead next. Held at EHL Campus (Singapore), this is a practical evening for anyone who wants to move beyond AI headlines and understand real applications, methods and possibilities. Three perspectives on practical AI The programme follows Mindstone’s established three-talk format, combining technical insight, an applied demonstration and a broader discussion: - What I Learned Building With LLMs, a technical breakdown of the process behind building an AI-powered product, including real-world lessons and insights. - How To Be More Productive Using AI, a practical, step-by-step demonstration of ways to use AI to complete tasks faster and improve the results. - What Does the Future Look Like With AI?, a theoretical exploration of how AI could affect work, daily life and society. This range makes the meetup relevant to product builders and technically minded attendees interested in LLM development, as well as professionals, founders and curious newcomers looking for useful AI workflows or a clearer view of the field. The event page does not specify prerequisites, and the mix of technical, practical and future-focused sessions provides several entry points into the subject. Talks, food and community The evening begins with doors opening, a welcome and an introduction before moving through the three featured sessions. Closing remarks and next steps are followed by pizza, drinks and casual networking, giving attendees time to compare experiences, discuss projects and meet other AI practitioners and enthusiasts in Singapore.

Singapore–India Hackathon 2026 brings young builders together at SMU in Singapore to create AI-powered solutions with real-world impact. Running 15–17 November 2026 at Singapore Management University (SMU), this three-day cross-border hackathon challenges participants from Singapore and India to combine their perspectives, skills and ideas around a shared ambition: build a better future. Hosted by the SMU Institute of Innovation & Entrepreneurship, the event centres on collaborative problem-solving rather than purely theoretical discussion. Participants will work in cross-border teams and receive access to a suite of AI tools with which to develop their solutions. The individual tools are not specified, so attendees should arrive ready to experiment, learn and turn an idea into something tangible within the hackathon timeframe. Four industry tracks Teams will tackle real problems across four areas where technology and entrepreneurship can generate meaningful change: - Fintech , exploring technology-led responses to challenges in financial services - Sustainability , building ideas that contribute to a more sustainable future - Emerging technology , applying new technological capabilities to practical problems - Social innovation , creating solutions designed to deliver positive outcomes for society Who should take part? The hackathon is aimed at young minds who want to build, collaborate across borders and make a difference. It is particularly relevant to aspiring founders, innovators, technologists and problem-solvers interested in AI, entrepreneurship and impact-led product development. The organisers emphasise a builder’s mindset and a desire to create change; no specific technical experience level or prerequisite is stated on the event page. What makes it different The defining feature is its Singapore–India format: participants do not simply compete alongside one another, but build together in cross-border teams. Over three intensive days, they will bring different experiences and perspectives to one challenge, using AI as a practical creation tool across sectors with clear social and economic relevance.… Register for this event

⌖ Singapore · Grand Hyatt Singapore

Hosted by Economist Enterprise

AI Innovation Asia brings senior business and government leaders to Singapore on 26 November 2026 to turn AI investment into measurable business value. Closing the AI value gap Held at the Grand Hyatt Singapore, this third annual conference from Economist Enterprise focuses on one of the most urgent questions facing organisations: why do some companies generate tangible returns from AI while others spend millions without moving beyond experimentation? The programme moves past hype to examine how leading organisations are implementing AI in practice. Through independent, editorial-led discussions, executive panels and real-world case studies, attendees will explore what it takes to convert investment into operational improvements, growth and durable competitive advantage. Key themes include: - Moving successful AI pilots into organisation-wide deployment - Measuring business value and tangible return on investment - Redesigning organisations, workflows and decision-making for AI - Avoiding costly implementation failures - Identifying where chief executives are directing their AI budgets for 2027 - Learning from organisations already putting AI to work across Asian markets Hear from leaders making AI pay The announced line-up combines editorial perspective with senior operational and technology experience. Tom Standage, deputy editor of The Economist and editor of The World Ahead, brings a long-standing focus on technology’s business, cultural and historical significance. He is joined by Binu Jacob, chairman and chief executive of Nestlé Vietnam, whose career spans almost three decades of FMCG leadership across Asia, Europe and the US.
