Built by founders. Still on Day 1.

An amazing physical space, built around the people in it.

The floor is laid out for collaboration and creation, not heads-down isolation. A bright open floor of hot desks, plus a pantry, couch areas, meeting rooms, and phone booths. Everything is designed to make it easy to bump into someone interesting and start something.

Four ways in.

Month-to-month, no long lock-ins. The first 25 founding members lock in their rate for 12 months.

All prices exclude VAT. Founding-member rate available for the first 25 sign-ups.

AI Collective Taipei Mixer — Official Future Mode Side Event

​The AI Collective partners up with Future Mode to bring you an easy, informal evening at Day1, a brand-new community-first coworking space in Da'an. No slides, no panels, no pitches. Just food, drinks, music, and the people actually building with AI in Taiwan and those visiting from foreign places. Whether they're shipping products, deploying AI inside their companies, or just deeply curious about where this is all going. We'll offer two short intros about: ​1-What The AI Collective is and why it now spans 200,000+ members across 100+ global forums. ​2-What Day1 is, and a presentation of its new co-working space. ​Then the rest of the evening is yours: grab a drink, find a couch, meet someone interesting. ​What to expect Short intro to The AI Collective and Day1 (kept brief) ​Food, drinks, and a playlist The perfect warm-up for the event weekend, small enough that you can actually talk to everyone Who should come Founders, builders, and operators working with AI in Taiwan Anyone in town for FUTUREMODE looking for a low-key kickoff Curious minds (no technical background needed) Logistics Where: Day1, 11F, 華視光復大樓, Guangfu South Road, Da'an District (3 min from Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall MRT) When: Friday, September 4th, doors at 6:30 PM Cost: Free.
