*We have limited capacity and applications will be reviewed in the order in which they are received.

The goal of this virtual meetup is to bring together researchers and practitioners who are actively working on NLP research and/or building NLP systems. We hope this event leads to many insightful conversations on LLMs, where we are, and what lies ahead!

We look forward to meeting you at the event.
