The Generative Beings
Who we are

Southeast Asia's most active AI builder community, and the GTM engine for the AI companies entering it.

TGB has reached 15,000+ AI founders and builders across Singapore, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand, with 3,800+ active on the platform. We run the events, the platform, and the ecosystem intelligence that AI companies use to move faster in Asia.

Where we're headed

Building toward 1 million AI-ready individuals across Asia.

There's value for three groups, and we're building for all three.

For individuals: 1 million people learning to build with AI, or use it to land a better job. Not someday, this is the decade it happens across Asia.

For founders: thousands of AI startups getting their first customers, first community, and first GTM traction through TGB before they can afford to build any of this alone.

For AI companies: the fastest way into the Asian AI ecosystem. Community, distribution, and market intelligence, without spending a year building it from zero.

We're not there yet. Today, we've reached 15,000+ founders and builders across Asia, with 3,800+ active on the TGB platform. But the direction is set.

How TGB started

Built from the ground up, one event at a time.

TGB started in 2024 as free community events in Singapore, built to bring AI founders and builders into the same room as the hyperscalers shaping the industry. By 2025, WhatsApp hit its member cap and it was clear this needed to be a platform, not just a group chat. Since then, TGB has run 200+ events across 7 countries, in partnership with companies like OpenAI, AWS, Alibaba, and Anthropic, reaching 15,000+ founders and builders and growing into the platform 3,800+ active members use to find products, jobs, events, and each other.

TGB is led by Shivang Gupta, founder and CEO, based in Singapore.
