OpenClaw Meetup in Shenzhen: High-Octane Gathering of Builders — What Are Founders Actually Doing With OpenClaw? | Unity Ventures OpenClaw Meetup · Shenzhen
Demo registration is now open.
On March 1, Unity Ventures hosted an OpenClaw Meetup in Beijing's Wudaokou neighborhood that drew over 200 "shrimp farmers," the electric atmosphere recalling the early days of the Mobile Internet startup wave.
OpenClaw didn't emerge from nowhere — it builds on years of evolution in the Agent space. What's significant now is how it's drawing in developers and stoking entrepreneurial energy across the Agent field.
While the first to profit were the "shovel sellers," some even doing on-site OpenClaw installations, entrepreneurs and developers jumped in immediately, testing their ideas with real products and gradually exploring what new directions and "new species" OpenClaw might enable.
On Thursday, March 12, Unity Ventures will host an OpenClaw special edition of AI Wonder Night in Shenzhen. We've invited several founders who've already shipped OpenClaw-related products to share their firsthand experience and thinking.
Demo and open-mic slots are now open for applications. You'll receive live feedback from investors and developers, plus RMB 1,000 in token support.
Builders from applications, hardware, and other fields are welcome to apply — we're hoping to see mind-bending innovations! Without false modesty, this will likely be the most "practitioner-heavy" gathering at any OpenClaw event in the near future. We'll email the venue location; approved applicants will receive confirmation by 22:00 on March 11. Please check in with the QR code in your email on the day of the event.
