San Francisco, April 29. A high-floor office with panoramic views, turned into a cozy living room for the night. A panel with top consumer VCs, founders, and operators, disco ball glow, warm lighting, drinks, and 70 people who live and breathe consumer tech.

On the panel

What's the default interface for consumer products in the next 3-5 years? How agents and next-gen wearables are changing the game, what happens to apps, what distribution actually looks like now, the playbooks that are working, and what's fundable (or not) in this cycle.
