The AI boom has unleashed an explosion of startup ideas, demos, and hype. Yet most AI startups that look impressive today will quietly disappear tomorrow. Why? Because “cool AI” is often mistaken for "valuable AI".In this candid, contrarian talk, Mahdi Fanidisfani draws from over a decade of hands-on leadership across startups, scale-ups, and mission-critical institutions to unpack what actually separates signal from noise in today’s AI startup landscape.What you’ll learn:Why the AI boom produces more ideas than great companiesThe most common failure patterns in AI startups (solution-first thinking, weak data moats, demo-driven products)Why killing ideas early is a competitive advantage — and how to do it systematicallyPractical frameworks to stress-test ideas fast: market pull, defensibility, and data reality checksThe real difference between “cool AI” and AI that creates lasting valueLessons from watching ideas fail, pivot, and survive in fast-moving AI marketsMahdi shares the exact stress tests and decision frameworks he uses when advising founders — shaped by real scar tissue from building companies, leading large engineering teams, and saying “no” to many seductive ideas.If you’ve ever wondered why so many AI startups shine at demo day but vanish six months later, this talk is for you.*No refunds on tickets, all sales are final.**All final prices include VAT.***Please note that pictures and videos could be taken at our events for use by AI4ALL brands for the purpose of AI4ALL event and program marketing. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/amsterdam/new-generation-of-startups-in-the-ai-boom-hype-by-ai4all-amsterdam-circle/100001980366742236 - **Event Categories**: business - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 7.25, max: 13.3, currency: EUR ## Event venue details - **city**: Amsterdam - **state**: NH - **country**: Netherlands - **location**: Equals Amsterdam - **lat**: 52.3697065 - **long**: 4.8984191 - **full address**: Equals Amsterdam, 6 Raamgracht, Amsterdam, Netherlands ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: New Generation of Startups in the AI Boom Hype by AI4ALL Amsterdam Circle - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/3dbdeeaac80686d465b492b4c07af79a32034d76a553f6a6cdb41ef14931be7d-rimg-w1200-h675-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1768265955 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is New Generation of Startups in the AI Boom Hype by AI4ALL Amsterdam Circle being held? - **A:** New Generation of Startups in the AI Boom Hype by AI4ALL Amsterdam Circle takes place on Thu, 12 Feb, 2026 at 05:00 pm to Thu, 12 Feb, 2026 at 07:00 pm at Equals Amsterdam, 6 Raamgracht, Amsterdam, Netherlands. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for New Generation of Startups in the AI Boom Hype by AI4ALL Amsterdam Circle? - **A:** Ticket prices for New Generation of Startups in the AI Boom Hype by AI4ALL Amsterdam Circle range from EUR 7 to EUR 13 depending on the ticket type.
