Tech Bytes: Austin

Tech Bytes is a curated dinner series for founders, creatives, marketers, and operators, and this Austin edition puts artificial intelligence at the centre of the conversation.

The evening opens with a panel featuring Ewen Finser, author and founder of ScaleVisible, alongside a longtime SEO practitioner billed as the "Godfather of SEO," moderated by host Mohammad Khan of mo.connections. The discussion traces the past, present, and future of search, and focuses on how AI-driven answer engines are changing the way people discover brands — and what founders and marketers should be doing differently in an AI-first world. If you are already thinking about generative engine optimisation, retrieval, or how LLM assistants surface (or bury) your product, this is squarely on topic.

After the panel the group moves to a seated community dinner, which is the real point of the series: a small room of people building companies and brands in Austin, talking without a stage.

Attendance is complimentary but space is deliberately limited, so RSVP only if you can genuinely make it. The exact address is not published publicly — the organiser releases it to confirmed guests through Luma, so register first and watch for the venue details.
