Our journey
Founded in January 2024, The Generative Beings began as a small AI meetup in Singapore with 50 participants. Driven by the region's hunger for innovation, it rapidly evolved into a multi-country ecosystem. By the end of 2024, we had evolved from an offline community to a digital platform with event listings, member directory, AI tools, jobs, learning resources and more.
