Seattle’s AI scene has been on display during AI Week, and today we’re excited to announce Google Cloud and JP Morgan Chase as official sponsors and deep-integration partners of AI House.
More than just logos on a wall, we are partnering to create real, hands-on support for founders building the next decade of AI in Seattle.
What this means with Google Cloud
Tier-one cloud credits for founders. Eligible AI2 Incubator startups now tap into Google’s flagship startup program—up to $350K in Google Cloud credits for AI startups, plus product support and technical enablement.
Early access + technical guidance. Founders get early access to the newest features and functionalities coming from Google AI Studio, Gemini and Deepmind, exploring new products prior to general release and connecting directly with engineering and product teams building at the cutting edge.
Technical programming. Google’s research leadership has been publicly advancing agents, world modeling, and long-horizon reasoning, and they’ve been active across Seattle’s AI Week programming. Expect more hands-on labs and recurring talks for builders at AI House.
What this means with JP Morgan Chase
Startup-native banking. JP Morgan’s Startup Banking team will provide founder-friendly checking, high-yield savings, payment and treasury management tools, and fintech integrations tailored to early-stage companies. This is the group that understands high-growth, venture-backed rhythms.
Warm intros that matter. Beyond banking, the JPM's top-tier network of entrepreneurs, investors, and industry leaders has already been opening doors for our founders. With $2 billion invested annually in AI technology, JPM's technology and research teams also provide expertise in agents and hybrid reasoning, AI planning and optimization, synthetic data generation, and multimodal document processing.
Founder programming. JPM has been sponsoring hands-on founder workshops at AI House, from our vibe-coding sessions for rapid MVPs to a monthly Founder Fundamentals series (zero-to-one topics with VCs, seasoned operators, and services) to Female Founder Happy Hours. We'll be expanding on these events and more.
Why this matters for Seattle
AI House was built by AI2 Incubator to be the physical hub and heartbeat of the Seattle AI ecosystem—where startups, research, government, and industry collide. With the City of Seattle, Washington State and Ada Developers Academy leaning in, this public-private engine is designed to turn ideas into companies, and companies into jobs on the waterfront. These sponsorships today help us do that at a greater scale.
Seattle has the talent, the research, and now even more fuel. With Google Cloud and JP Morgan Chase onboard, we’re doubling down on our vision: AI House as the place where experts, entrepreneurs, community leaders, and builders come together to create the next era of AI in Seattle.
