An unforgettable evening celebrating innovation and collaboration in the AI startup community! Organized for our client AI.hessen, the event brought together visionaries and entrepreneurs for an electrifying finale. Six outstanding finalists pitched their groundbreaking ideas, impressing both the audience and the jury. As Jury-member Dr. Kathrin Steinbrink noted, “The decision was really not easy for us.” Ultimately, PHONT, MySympto, and ViSPAGI emerged as winners, taking their well-deserved spots on the podium.

Before Smiling Monroe became the iconic basement venue for cozy live music nights, it all started with Smiling Mona—a rooftop pop-up that captured the magic of sunsets, city lights, and skyline views. Inspired by New York’s vibrant energy, our rooftop tiny concerts turned strangers into friends, filling the air with electric vibes and unforgettable live music. We revisited those roots, reviving the spirit of Smiling Mona and celebrating the community that has grown with us. Thank you to everyone who joined us in bringing that magic back to life!

We partnered with AI Hub to host an inspiring event that connected AI innovators, startups, and industry leaders. The day featured cutting-edge discussions, impactful networking, and showcases of groundbreaking AI solutions, empowering the community to drive the future of technology.
