ffVC Dispatch: Future Labs Al Summit Recap, Al NexusLab Applications + Q1 News
Dear friends of ffVC —
There's much to recap from what has been a busy first quarter of 2017. Namely, we announced that Ryan Armbrust has been elected Partner, concluded the first cohort of the NYU/ffVC AI NexusLab, and continued discussing the importance of why we're investing in artificial intelligence.
We also co-hosted the first Future Labs AI Summit with an all-star lineup from Facebook, IBM, CB Insights, Fast Forward Labs, FirstMark Capital, and 550+ attendees to name a few. Check out highlights from the day here.
Applications are now open through May 3 for the second cohort of the AI NexusLab. The program will begin in July 2017. Apply here and read more details on the success of the first cohort in TechCrunch.
