One day, built for the conversations that turn into business.

Keynotes and sessions on the business of AI, on the main stage. Around them, the two things people came back for last year: a full round of speed networking, and an expo floor that stays open all day.

Speed networking

Meet the people you came to meet.

Structured rounds, matched in the conference app to the buyers, investors, primes and policymakers you ask for. Every seat at the table is a conversation you would not have started on your own.

1,600+introductions made in one afternoon last year
The expo floor

Open all day, from the first coffee to the last handshake.

Sponsors and exhibitors on the floor between every session: the corporate partners, agencies and lenders who are there because they want to meet you.
