源于信念，成于坚持
Thinking back to your first prompt: how long did it take? A few seconds? A few minutes of fumbling?
Today, your interaction with technology is different. It is intentional. It is deliberate. It is an iterative dance between human intent and machine capability. That is what Prompt in Progress represents.
We are a community of builders, creators, and innovators across Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area who refuse to sit on the sidelines of this technological shift. We are here to spark change in our region.
We acknowledge the uncertainty of the future, yet we embrace the "in-between", the space where progress is defined not by having certainty, but by the relentless pursuit of crafting the next prompt.
We are not just event organizers. We are building an ecosystem.
Don't prompt alone. Join us, and let's prompt together with purpose
"When I first started building an AI community in Hong Kong back in 2024, I started with no network, no resources, and no backing. It was sheer dedication and the belief that we needed a technical community in the city, and that we indeed have builders in the region.
I would go to conferences, wait until the panels were over, and introduce what I was building to the speakers in hopes that they would host us. There were a lot of rejections and cold shoulders, but in less than a few years, we grew very quickly. We met friends who now call this community home, and we have partnered and worked with many partners that I never would have imagined.
The reason why I started these events on a pro-bono basis, kept our monthly meet-ups open, and hosted them consistently, is that I believe events are not just a mere value exchange. We can genuinely learn from each other and explore the journey of AI together. I want people to leave feeling inspired, rather than just feeling like they attended 'another event.'
We are builders of people, not event organizers. We are about stories and feelings, not just a name on a marketing mailing list or a corporate KPI.
After hosting these events, I feel there is a bigger calling: we can genuinely build an ecosystem that supports one another.
That is why we pivoted to
Honestly, I have no idea exactly how this ecosystem will look, which is why it is 'in progress.' But I believe that if we are intentional and deliberate in building the ecosystem in the region-just like how we prompt with intention-we can genuinely create great things and manifest our dreams into reality.
I believe we have a duty to be inclusive.
Beyond our technical meetups, we have a calling as humans to help others understand this technology. There is so much more we can do to bridge the gap.
We will do more beyond technical meetups, initiatives that might not necessarily be part of AI Tinkerers Hong Kong but are driven by the same mission.
Here, we embrace imperfection. We embrace the 'in-betweens.' We embrace what is in progress.
This is a community where we can be lost and confused; everything we are witnessing is new and disruptive, but we can navigate it together.
Hopefully, you will find a community and friends within this ecosystem."
A collective of builders, creators, and innovators across Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area - dedicated to fostering a thriving innovation ecosystem.
一个精心策划的社区，致力于连接顶尖的人工智能开发者。
You may know us as the team behind AI Tinkerers Hong Kong, a builder-first meetup series fostering high-impact, intellectual exchange in the city, that remains unchanged. Beyond technical meetups we are building a broader ecosystem under Prompt in Progress.
精心策划，志同道合We believe in bridging the knowledge gap. We empower others to understand AI through hands-on workshops, expert talks, and accessible learning experiences. Whether you are a seasoned engineer or someone encountering AI for the first time, our goal is to make AI knowledge approachable and inclusive for everyone in the community.
共情式学习We have learned from our experience as community builders that opportunities arise organically from genuine community connection. We believe in showing up and earning your reputation, rather than paying for access or affiliation. We know there is more behind every person, and we create space for those stories to unfold.
重视关系，拒绝交易思维
We continue to create impact in a city called Home Kong, building community, fostering connections, and shaping the future of AI in the region.
