MIT CSAIL Alliances offers a variety of events that address the latest research and innovation in computer science, AI, and robotics and their impacts on business and the greater economy. Many events are offered in coordination with our member companies. Please join us!
Khosla Ventures focuses on high-risk, high-impact investments across artificial intelligence (AI), climate change, sustainability, enterprise, consumer, fintech, digital health, and frontier technologies. In this tech talk, Khosla Ventures will be leading conversations with one of their ventures, Foundry Robotics. Join the team over lunch to learn more about Foundry Robotics and their technology, opportunities to work at Foundry Robotics, Khosla Ventures, and more of Khosla Ventures' portfolio companies.

Adarsh Kulkarni is founder and CEO of Foundry Robotics, an AI-first contract manufacturer building and operating its own robot-run assembly facilities for defense and industrial customers. He was employee #4 at Ghost Robotics and built Scale AI's robotics organization from scratch. He studied robotics at Penn. His bet is that owning the factory, not just selling robots into someone else's, is how physical AI reaches production. (https://foundryrobotics.ai/)

Building and scaling AI systems looks different once you leave the lab. Join us for a lunch with Dr. Patrick Butler from Nebius, to discuss the messy middle between “it works on my machine” and production-grade infrastructure at scale.
We’ll dig into what actually breaks (and what actually works) when moving from research prototypes to production workloads — GPU provisioning, scaling headaches, cost tradeoffs, and the lessons learned the hard way. Expect candid stories from people building at the frontier, good food, and even better conversation.
