More than 10,000 founders, investors, and industry professionals are expected to gather this year, with a heavy emphasis on navigating the AI landscape. The programming aims to move beyond theoretical discussions, focusing on the practical application of artificial intelligence in sectors like robotics, autonomous systems, and defense. Whether attendees are scouting for talent, seeking capital, or launching new ventures, the event serves as a hub for strategic networking.
New programming for 2026 includes the Real World AI, Smart Money, and Smart Systems stages, addressing everything from physical-world AI integration to the infrastructure of compute and energy. Featured speakers scheduled to present include Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe, Amazon SVP Panos Panay, and Bluesky leadership Toni Schneider and Rose Wang. With the deadline to lock in current rates ending Friday, August 21, the event offers tiered access for everyone from students entering the ecosystem to established venture capitalists.
