Gurgaon: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is quietly reshaping the consumer experience—from personalized content to predictive intent and behind-the-scenes automation. To spotlight this transformation, MIXI Global Investments and Eximius Ventures are launching “Cities Connect: AI x Consumer 2025”, a multi-city series bringing together India’s top AI-driven consumer product builders, investors, and ecosystem leaders.

The series will take place in Gurgaon (August 6), Pune (August 12), and Hyderabad (August 13), from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM in each city. Designed to fuel collaboration, these gatherings aim to strengthen connections between early-stage founders and capital partners operating at the AI-consumer interface.

With India’s AI market projected to reach $17 billion by 2027 and the digital economy expected to cross $1 trillion by 2030, the timing couldn’t be better. Cities Connect aims to bridge the gap between innovation and investment through focused discussions, market insights, and curated networking.

The event will feature a fast-paced VC & Knowledge Exchange block, including reverse pitches by investors, startup case studies, practical playbooks, and Q&A with warm introductions—driving real, actionable insights for early teams.

Pearl Agarwal, Founder and Managing Partner, Eximius Ventures said, “We’re beyond the hype phase. Founders now need honest feedback and structured capital support. Cities Connect is our commitment to making that happen.”

Tomoharu Urabe, MD, MIXI Global Investments added, “Globally, founders are building AI-native products. This initiative is our way to support and learn from India’s evolving AI x Consumer ecosystem.”
