Join us on September 19, 2026, at the Santa Clara Convention Center for an afternoon AI Conference bringing together leaders in technology, startups, investment, and education to explore how AI is shaping our future.

The conference will feature two tracks: the Technology Track and the Education Track.

The Technology Track, “Engineering the AI-Native Future: How AI Is Transforming Technology, Business, and Innovation,” will bring together Silicon Valley AI leaders, venture investors, startup founders, and engineers to examine how AI-native companies are changing the way organizations compete, build products, develop software, and create entirely new industries.

The program will feature keynote speaker Jeremiah Owyang, General Partner at Blitzscaling Ventures and Founder & Host of Llama Lounge, presenting “The AI-Native Era: How Organizations Will Compete, Build, and Scale.” Featured sessions will also include Bernard Harguindeguy on how every company is becoming an AI company, Leo Tchourakov of Factory on the self-improving software factory, and startup leaders sharing how AI is transforming startups and creating new industries.

Topics will include AI-native companies, agentic AI, intelligent software development, cybersecurity, AI accessibility, smart wearables, human-AI collaboration, venture capital, startups, and emerging technologies.

The Education Track will explore how we prepare people for this rapidly changing world. Dr. Arun Majumdar, Dean of the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability, will present “Education in the Age of AI: Preparing Minds for an Intelligent Future,” while Johnny Ho, Co-founder & Chief Strategy Officer of Perplexity AI, will discuss “Orchestrating Entrepreneurship in AI.”

Together, the two tracks explore both sides of the AI transformation: how we build the AI-native future—and how we prepare people to thrive in it.
