### About
We’re hosting our second-ever full-day in-person Vector Space Day (https://luma.com/vsd-sf) on June 11th at The Midway in San Francisco, and you’re invited.
Last year in Berlin we brought together 400+ engineers, researchers, and AI builders to explore the cutting edge of retrieval, vector search infrastructure, and agentic AI. And we’re excited to now bring that to San Francisco.
