About the event

One day a year, Central India's AI builders all show up.

Last March, 500 of them packed Oriental's auditorium past 10 PM — students from MANIT and IIIT, engineers shipping AI in production, recruiters who flew in from Bangalore. This year is May 16 at LNCT, and it's bigger.

What to expect

A day made for shipping.

Four things happen in this room on May 16. All of them are worth your train ticket.

01 / 04

Talks worth your time

From people writing AI in production. Two GDEs confirmed, two more reveals incoming. No 'AI is the future' nonsense — what works, what doesn't, what's next.

02 / 04

Workshops you'll actually use

Open your laptop, leave with code. GenAI, LLMs, agents, cloud — pick your poison. We bring the WiFi, the API keys, and the people who know what they're doing.

03 / 04

AI-Thon Showcase

Demo your build to peers, recruiters, and a panel that will tell you the truth. Best builds get on the wall — and offers.

04 / 04

Find your people

500 builders, 9 institutes, recruiters from Bangalore. The Bhopal AI scene compressed into one day. Bring stickers.

GuaranteedInternship Opportunities

Every attendee gets in front of a hiring team.

We're partnered with the companies and startups recruiting Central India this year. Internship intros happen on the floor — guaranteed.

Project Showcase

Built something interesting? Show it off.

We're inviting builders, developers, and innovators to present their projects at AI Day Bhopal 2.0. This isn't just about ideas — we want working projects, real implementations, and meaningful use-cases on stage.

Working projects

Not slides, not pitch decks — something running on a laptop, a server, or a phone. If it boots, it qualifies.

Real implementations

Code shipped, models deployed, agents in production. Show us what you built and how it actually holds up.

Meaningful use-cases

Solving a problem someone has — for users, for a community, for your team. We care about the impact, not the hype.

11:50 AM slot · Live on stage

Apply for the Product Showcase & Live Demos slot.

Tell us what you built. If it's a fit, you'll demo it live in front of 500 builders in the room and the 5,000 watching online.

Six reasons May 16 earns its slot in your marketing budget — and why brands keep coming back.

The room everyone shows up to

Once a year, Central India's AI builders all end up in the same auditorium. May 16 is that day. Your brand is in every photo.

These are your next hires

Not 'reach', not 'impressions' — actual people writing code, shipping side projects, applying to your jobs. Talk to them face-to-face.

500 in the room, 5,000 watching

Live streams, recap reels, and the ML Bhopal channel network — the week of May 16, your logo rides along on every post.

Hire on the floor

Set up a booth, run a fireside, drop a job link. Internship offers and full-time intros go out before the closing keynote.

We grew up as TFUG Bhopal

Google for Developers has our back. That badge sits on every email, slide, and stream — right next to yours.

Goodwill that compounds

The student you help today specs your tools next year. Bhopal remembers who showed up early — and so do the engineers it sends out.

Two ways in

Read the deck. Or book the call.

Tiers, talent access, and branding — all in one PDF. Reply to the email inside and we'll be back under a day.

Recap · 2025

We did this once. It got loud.

Last March, 500 builders filled Oriental's auditorium until the staff politely asked us to leave. Here's the receipts.

Why Bhopal

It sits at the geographic centre of India. One overnight train from Indore, Raipur, Jaipur, Lucknow, or Nagpur. If you're building AI in Central India, this is the closest you'll get to the rest of us.
