가장 활발하고 솔직한 AI 커뮤니티

Bloom is a community for people living through the AI era. We pass through AI Blue, the unease of a world moving faster than we are, and each of us blooms in our own way. We listen to what people have to say, then close the night in roundtables of about six. Put what is not working yet on the table instead of what went well, and the problem you were holding alone starts to show a next move.

About

Bloom is a community for people living through the AI era.

It started with one phrase: AI Blue, the unease of a world moving faster than we can keep up with. We opened that question in public at the first gathering in April 2026, and over 2,000 people applied for 170 seats. Nobody, it turned out, was feeling it alone.

In the four months since, we have gathered more than 30 times. Anthropic, AWS, Microsoft, Oracle, Snowflake, Singtel and Fieldguide have joined us, in rooms ranging from a 200-pyeong outdoor cafe to a telecom headquarters. What began as one city's meetup now runs in Singapore too.

Today people come from 4,627 companies. There have been 11,685 applications from 7,106 individuals, and four in ten come back. Engineers are the largest group, but founders, marketers and researchers sit at the same table. Between events the conversation carries on in Discord, where 2,812 people have gathered.

One thing has not changed as we grew. What gets shared is still the part that is not working, not the part that went well. And what brings people back is not the stage but the table that follows it.

Our strengths

The reasons people keep coming back, and what we protect as the community grows.

Honest by default

We ask speakers for what actually broke, not the polished version. People say out loud that they are anxious, and that is what makes the room useful.

Practitioners, not pundits

Everyone on stage is doing the work right now: founders, engineers, lawyers, marketers, security researchers. No one is here to sell a forecast.

The table after the talk

Every event ends in small-group roundtables. Six people, one question, no slides. It is where the things that are not online get said.

Where industries mix

Big tech and conglomerates sit next to solo builders and students. Finance, gaming, law, retail, public sector. The mix is the point.

Offline on purpose

We do not run online-only events. A connection made face to face behaves differently, and the whole community is built on that bet.

Seoul, and outward

The same anxiety showed up in Singapore, where 1,500 people applied and the room filled in a day. What starts here does not stay here.
