Who we are & what we do

The AI Collective Hampton Roads chapter is dedicated to fostering a vibrant community of beginners, innovators, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. Our goal is to demystify artificial intelligence and no-code technologies, making them accessible to individuals from all backgrounds and skill levels through no or low cost networking events, hands-on workshops, and collaborative projects. By creating an inclusive environment where ideas flourish and knowledge is freely shared, we aim to empower our members to harness these transformative technologies, driving personal growth and regional economic development. We strive to position Hampton Roads as a hub for AI and no-code innovation, inspiring our community to solve real-world problems, launch innovative startups, and adapt to the evolving digital landscape, ultimately contributing to the technological advancement and prosperity of our region.
