CTO Clinic - Fall '26 Edition

Tech Makers CTO Clinic — A Live Problem-Solving Event with Top Tech Leaders

Tech Makers’ newest format is here, and we're going technical.

For CTO Clinic, Tech Makers curates a panel of senior tech leaders who work through 2–3 real engineering problems submitted by the audience, live on stage.

The panel digs into each problem, asking questions, challenging assumptions, debating trade-offs, and pulling the thinking apart in real time. The audience joins in as well.

So if you're a founder, an engineer, or just AI-curious, then this event is for you.

Submit your problem

If you've got an engineering or technical challenge, especially AI-related, that could use fresh perspective, submit it when you register.

If selected, we'll reach out to coordinate. You'll need to present your problem to the panel live during the event and be able to represent things visually.

Event Schedule

• 18.00: Networking, food, and drinks - meet your fellow builders and engineers before we sit down for the main event
• 19.00: The main event - We all take our seats as the presenters and the panelists begin digging into problems
• 20.00: Closing remarks and networking - This is the chance to follow up with panelists on your burning questions
