Dirty Jobs is built for the people building and funding Physical AI. On the company side, that means founders and executives at seed through Series B companies. On the investor side, that means general partners and partners. We keep the room senior and operator-heavy so every conversation is worth your day.

Yes. VSC portfolio founders will be there.

Yes. We share the list of approved attendees ahead of the event.

Past events centered on technology for the trades and applications of hardware and robotics. This year focuses on Physical AI: the underlying models and the application-level technologies, including but not limited to autonomous robotics.

Huddle topics will be announced closer to the event and shared with approved attendees. Expect founder-focused sessions on the real challenges of building in Physical AI, including fundraising, go-to-market, hiring technical talent, selling to enterprise, and storytelling.

You can pre-reserve a spot in up to two Huddles, and join others on the day if space allows. Two to three Huddles run at once, and we vary the tracks by attendee interest. The format is built for founders and investors to get to know each other away from the stage. Founders talk through the challenges they are facing, and investors share how they and their portfolio companies have navigated the same. We will send approved attendees the full list of Huddle topics soon.

Yes. Past attendees need to reapply, though being part of the Dirty Jobs community helps with priority and a faster review.

We hold a strict limit of one attendee per company and one per fund. If you have a specific reason to request an exception, reach out to the organizers.

No. Any transfer has to go through the event organizers directly.
