Blockchain and tech venture capital firm Hashed will hold 'Nitro Track Day' on Oct. 22 at Hashed Lounge in Seoul, with AI founders, developers and others taking part, it said on Sunday.

Nitro is an AI developer community created by revamping Hashed Vibe Labs, a startup support programme launched by Hashed early this year. It is expanding its scope from a short-term support model centred on selected teams to an always-on community where founders, developers and experts in each field can network on an ongoing basis.

The event will discuss changes in development environments driven by the spread of AI tools and decision-making in product development. Participants will share real cases ranging from early product building to feature improvements based on user reactions and reviews of market potential.

Hashed's existing portfolio companies will also take part to share their experiences using AI and explore possible collaboration. The programme will begin with an opening by Hashed CEO Kim Seo-jun (김서준), followed by topic-based presentations and discussions, and networking among participants.

Hashed has hired dedicated developer relations, or DevRel, staff to strengthen operation of the Nitro community. It previously provided product feedback and mentoring to participating teams, and in April held a game day and unveiled products from four teams including GPTO, GGUI, KYRO and Elyn.

Hashed CEO Kim said, "As making things with AI has become easier, thinking about why you should build something has become more important than what to build." He added, "Starting with this track day, I hope Nitro will continue as a place to share each other's trial and error and think together about the next experiment."
