We are thrilled to share that AIBUILD was invited to participate in the Nexus 2024 Alumni Networking Event, hosted by the City of Melbourne and Acase.

Sharing Our Journey
During the event, our COO, JoJo, represented AIBUILD as a panelist in a discussion centered on growing a ‘born-global’ startup venture and embracing globalization from day one.
