Where Pune's AI minds meet.
FAIR is a collective of AI researchers, engineers, and builders in Pune — building in public, learning together, shipping real work.
Not a meetup.
A movement.
FAIR brings together people who are actually building — not just networking. We do paper reading circles, open-source sprints, hackathons, and deep-dives into what's actually working in AI right now. We believe the future of AI isn't just in Silicon Valley, but in the hubs like Pune where builders meet.

NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Super – Workshop
This hands-on workshop dives deep into NVIDIA Nemotron™ 3 Super, a powerful 120B open hybrid Mamba-Transformer Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model built for complex reasoning, long-context analysis, and autonomous problem-solving. You will explore key architectural innovations like Latent MoE and Multi-Token Prediction, and learn how to build, optimize, and deploy real-world AI systems using NVIDIA’s open weights, datasets, and deployment recipes.
Paper Circles
Weekly deep-dives into the latest research papers from Arxiv. No hype, just math and architecture.
Build Sprints
48-hour collaborative sessions to build and ship open-source specialized AI tools and models.
Talks & Demos
Flash talks from local builders showing off what they shipped this month. Raw and technical.
Built by the community, for the community
