Lunatechs × Berkeley Club Hong Kong × OpenClaw Asia
— three communities, one night —

The tools that used to need a studio, a crew, and a five-figure budget now fit on your laptop.

In one night: five Hong Kong creators screen the AI video they've actually made — each using a different mix of today's video models — then show you exactly how they did it. A filmmaker. An award-winning AIGC creator. A creative technologist. A startup co-founder. A tech YouTuber.

Plus HolyCrab.ai — introducing Seedance 2.0, ByteDance's next-generation video model.

That's the whole point: it really is for everyone.

The lineup

Six voices on stage.

Five creators, each bringing their own AI video across a different mix of tools — and one cloud provider, walking us through Seedance 2.0.

The pizza fund

The pizza fund.

Lunatechs has always been free, and still is — every event we've ever run was open-door. The new bit: when you buy a paid ticket, you're not buying entry, you're buying pizza for the whole room. 100% volunteer-run, 100% of every dollar lands on the table.

🍕 100% of supporter money buys pizza — for everyone in the room.

Lunatechs is completely volunteer-run. Every dollar from Pizza Supporter / Sponsor / Patron tickets goes straight to pizza for the whole night — no overhead, no salaries, no skim. You don't just feed yourself; you feed the room.

Generously hosting us

A massive thank-you to The Hive Causeway Bay.

The Hive is giving us this space for the night — a Grade-A coworking and events venue on the 9th floor of VPOINT, one minute from Causeway Bay MTR, smack in the middle of Times Square, Lee Gardens, and the World Trade Centre. We genuinely couldn't run this kind of night without them.

Modern lounges, top-spec AV, and a sky-garden terrace you'll want to spill out onto when the talks wind down. Go say hi to them on the night.
