TL;DR: We’re four undergraduate organizers who want to build an Events-as-a-Service (EaaS) organization to execute events for operations-constrained AIS/EA orgs. You cover an event’s operational costs and programming, and we'll plan and run it. Scope and timeline are negotiable. If you have an event you’d want us to help run in the next ~3 months, please fill out the form linked here!
Background
Ops capacity is limited in the AIS/EA community, and events eat up a lot of it. An EaaS organization could rapidly supply ops capacity to organizations to capitalize on short convening windows, preserve capacity, and test low-hanging event ideas that otherwise would be missed.
Work with us!
We are interested in executing events-shaped projects with partner organizations in the next months while we build a track record. Some example events that we could help run include retreats, convenings, workshops, hackathons, socials and happy hours. We could handle lodging, travel, comms, venue, catering, and more, but the specifics are up for negotiation.
Our team
We’re four undergraduate organizers with both event-ops experience and AI safety context.
Between us, we have:
We’d be happy to provide more information on our past work and connect you with previous funders of ours if necessary.
Depending on our growth, we may found a long-term organization and scale up capacity, or pivot to something else. We are not sure yet how many event projects we intend on taking on over the next few months.
