Rooftop & Karaoke: Productivity Meets Play at Aloft LIC

Two floors. One night. Two different kinds of work. We're back at Aloft LIC, and this time the format is built around something founders forget to do on purpose: switch modes. **7:00 to 8:00 PM** Rooftop, 18th floor. Manhattan views. Focused conversations. The kind of talk that clarifies a decision or opens a door. **8:00 to 9:00 PM** Ground floor. Karaoke. No agenda, no pitch, no next step required. Grab the mic or grab a drink and watch someone else grab it. Here are pictures of our past events at the venue: [https://photos.app.goo.gl/zTZso9QtLCUF65pS7](https://photos.app.goo.gl/zTZso9QtLCUF65pS7) Not all output. Not all play. Both, on purpose. This isn't a rigid schedule. Come for one floor or both. Arrive at 7, arrive at 8, stay past 9. **📍 Location**: Aloft Long Island City-Manhattan View Hotel, 27-45 Jackson Ave, Long Island City, NY 11101 **📍 Date**: Wednesday, August 12, 2026 **📍 Time**: 7:00 to 9:00 PM ET Check in at the lobby when you arrive.

The AI Briefing by Startup Grind - Agentic Governance

**👉 [CLICK HERE](https://www.startupgrind.com/events/details/startup-grind-new-york-city-presents-the-ai-briefing-by-startup-grind-agentic-governance/) TO RSVP FOR FREE 👈** The AI Briefing is a recurring **AI deep-dive for decision-makers.** Each month, we select one high-signal industry report, circulate it in advance, and meet to cut through the noise. 📜 **This Month's Source:** [The AI Agent Governance Gap: What CISOs Need Now](https://labs.cloudsecurityalliance.org/research/csa-research-note-ai-agent-governance-framework-gap-20260403/) (*Cloud Security Alliance AI Safety Initiative – Apr 2026*) Gartner projects that **40% of enterprise applications will embed task-specific AI agents** by the end of 2026, up from less than 5% in 2025. However, it's becoming clear that **governance hasn't kept pace** with that curve. A 2026 survey of CISOs and CIOs at large enterprises found that **92% of them lack full visibility into their own AI agent identities**. 95% doubt they could detect or contain a compromised agent if one turned up. **That leaves a real gap for enterprises deploying agents today.** No enforceable standard exists yet, and the frameworks most organizations already lean on (*NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, the EU AI Act*) were built for AI that responds to a prompt, **not for AI that plans and takes action** across outside systems on its own. **🏔️ The Mission:** Who owns the agent when it acts? * This session is co-hosted with [Lazy 8 AI](https://luma.com/lazy8?k=c), an engineering collective focused on the transition from manual coding to managing autonomous AI systems. * We'll use the report's own gaps, especially around identity and incident response, as the anchor for a broader conversation: what readiness actually looks like when the standards bodies are still a year or more behind the deployments. **📊 The Format:** * **We'll open with the numbers:** 92% of CISOs and CIOs blind to their own agent identities, and a standards timeline that leaves them on their own well into 2026. * **The room debates the report's own recommendations:** agent inventories, least-privilege credentials, agent-specific incident response. What's realistic for a team that's already stretched, and what's closer to theater. **🤝 Who Should Attend:** * **Enterprise Executives:** Understand the exposure your organization is carrying right now, before a standard exists to measure against, and what following best practice will need to mean when a regulator or a board comes knocking. * **Product, Data, and Operations Leads:** Compare notes on what you're actually doing today to track agent identity, permissions, and incident response, and where the gap between what leadership assumes and what's built is widest. * **Founders & Builders:** See where the governance tooling gap is actually a product opportunity, and why the report's own commercial incentives should make you skeptical of framework adoption as the automatic answer. **📬 The Prep:** This is a working session. Review the report [here](https://labs.cloudsecurityalliance.org/research/csa-research-note-ai-agent-governance-framework-gap-20260403/).

The Career Reset: Surviving and Thriving in the AI Economy

Meeting Link: [Technology.ai Session : The Career Reset: Surviving and Thriving in the AI Economy | Meeting-Join | Microsoft Teams](https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/221840705946574?p=SOyAuqJBSXJtjN4j9B) Artificial intelligence is not just changing jobs — it is changing what it means to have a job. This session explores how AI agents, automation, and software platforms are transforming corporate work, professional careers, and entrepreneurship. Students will learn which skills are becoming obsolete, which are becoming valuable, and how roles are shifting from doing work to directing and supervising intelligent systems. The talk also introduces the emerging “one-person company,” new labor models, and how future workers may build businesses instead of applying for jobs. Attendees will leave with practical guidance on what to study, what to practice, and how to prepare for a career in the AI economy. In short, what do do when: \- Your Future Boss Might Be an Algorithm \- Your Future Lawyer Might Be an Algorithm \- Your Future Doctor Might Be an Algorithm \- Your Future Teacher Might Be an Algorithm

Public Speaking Workshop: Hands-on Training for Professionals

### Overview Stop just **talking** about soft skills and start **doing** them! This fun, activity-based workshop focuses on practical skills for assertive communication, active listening, negotiation, and navigating the social landscape of the modern workplace. Ideal for engineers, product managers, and other tech professionals. ### Details Join a lively, hands-on communication workshop designed for software engineers, product managers, and other tech professionals who want to build real-time communication fluency and confidence in a low-pressure setting. ### What this event is This is a peer-to-peer, activity-based learning night where you won't just *hear* about best practices—you will immediately *practice* them in a variety of fast-paced games and guided role-playing scenarios. The focus is on building confidence, developing muscle memory for tough conversations, and supporting each other as a community while having a good time. ### How it works You will participate in a rotating series of structured, interactive activities focused on key workplace communication challenges. You will work in pairs and small groups, taking turns as the 'communicator' and the 'listener/feedback giver' in short, focused rounds. **We will be playing games and running scenarios to practice:** * **Assertive Communication:** Expressing ideas clearly and standing up for yourself without being aggressive. * **Active Listening:** Understanding and responding effectively to a colleague's needs or concerns. * **Negotiation & Compromise:** Finding mutually beneficial solutions in decision-making and project debates. * **Workplace Navigation:** Handling office politics, giving constructive feedback, and advocating for your team/ideas. After each activity, you and your partners will give each other specific, actionable feedback to help refine your technique, clarity, and overall presence. ### Who should attend This workshop is ideal for: * **Engineers and Technical Experts** who want to translate complex ideas into clear, compelling workplace communication. * **Product Managers and Tech Leads** needing to improve negotiation and difficult conversation skills. * **Professionals** feeling out of practice or intimidated by presenting, advocating, or workplace dynamics. All experience levels are welcome; the only requirement is a willingness to practice, give feedback, and treat others with respect. **This is a workshop for developing skills, not a lecture.** ### About the facilitator (Nick Cernek) The session will be facilitated by Nick Cernek, a seasoned **Tech Lead and Manager** who has successfully led high-performing engineering teams. Nick’s experience is rooted in understanding how to move projects forward and secure resources by **effectively navigating the political and social realities of a large organization.** Nick will share proven strategies for managing challenging stakeholders, advocating for team needs, and using **strategic communication** to drive professional and organizational success. ### Vibe and expectations Expect a **highly interactive, lighthearted, and encouraging atmosphere** where making mistakes is the best way to learn and feedback is always constructive. The goal is to walk away with more confidence, a toolkit of practical communication strategies, and the muscle memory to use them when it counts—while meeting other local tech folks working to enhance their soft skills.
