Pinecone actively participated in the 2025 NY Tech Week, a decentralized conference known for its expansive reach across New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, drawing over 40,000 participants in New York alone. As a highlight, Pinecone hosted various events, including a private breakfast led by CEO Edo Liberty and a packed meetup introducing the Pinecone for Startups program. The company observed a significant shift in the community's focus from Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to Agentic AI, emphasizing the continued importance of fast and accurate data retrieval. Pinecone received positive feedback on its product direction and community support, which will influence future developments. The company plans to continue its outreach with a Pinecone 101 workshop in collaboration with AWS and future events on the West Coast.
