Empower Startups with AI
36,000+ founders · Silicon Valley's longest-running startup community
SVE is Silicon Valley's home for entrepreneurs who build with AI. Since 2008, we've been the launchpad for thousands of founders — and today we're evolving with the frontier: empowering the next generation of innovators to harness AI as a builder, operator, and competitive advantage.
Our signature SVE Startup Showcase — Silicon Valley's oldest community pitch night — continues to be where ideas become ventures. Now with a dedicated focus on AI-native companies, we've expanded our programming to include hands-on AI workshops, AI Office Hours, and the annual SVE AI Demo Day.
We remain deeply committed to Physical AI, Embodied AI, Robotics, PropTech, and SaaS, and are proud partners of the Physical AI Builders community and the F50 Physical AI Summit. Whether you're a first-time founder, a seasoned builder, or an investor seeking the next frontier — SVE is where you connect, build, and grow.
