Merantix AI Campus and Huckletree London brings AI leaders together

Huckletree’s Oxford Circus location is set to become London’s new AI hub. Beginning in October, Merantix AI Campus is teaming up with Huckletree to offer a series of events on the burgeoning topic of AI, bringing leaders in the field together for conversation and friendly debate at the “Huckletree x Merantix AI Campus Pop-Up.”

The pop-up will feature a full roster of events with top minds in the AI field, with speakers from VCs including Index Ventures and Kindred Capital and leaders in industries such as FinTech, health care, banking, and media. The series will begin on Wednesday, October 18 with the “State of AI: Investment Strategies for the Age of AI,” featuring speakers from Index Ventures, Air Street Capital and Merantix.

“With this partnership, Merantix and Huckletree aim to establish London’s most dynamic and engaged AI ecosystem and build bridges between London and other European hubs including Berlin’s Merantix AI Campus,” said Gabriela Hersham, CEO at Huckletree. “We are excited to bring people together to share knowledge, solve problems and harness the opportunities and benefits that AI technologies present.”

“I can think of no better city than London for Merantix’s next pop-up collaboration,” said Adrian Locher, Co-Founder of Merantix. “In order to further cultivate new technology, it’s critical to offer open forums for collaboration and exchange across Europe and the UK. We are thrilled to partner with Huckletree and look forward to the many great conversations to come.”

Artificial Intelligence (AI) holds immense potential to revolutionise and enhance industries across the board. The UK is positioning itself as a global leader in this field with a vision to become a science and technology superpower by 2030. As the home for innovative businesses in London, Huckletree has seen its member base of AI disruptors grow in recent months following the opening of its Oxford Circus hub in March 2023.

Based in Berlin, the AI Campus holds regular events and panels diving into the AI agenda, bringing leading minds in our industry together, and advancing the global AI conversation around how AI will impact our society, industry and economy.
