TEDAI Vienna 2026

TEDAI Vienna 2026 is the European edition of the TED conference series dedicated to artificial intelligence, held 28 to 30 October 2026 at the Hofburg in Vienna. The format follows TED convention, with short curated talks from researchers, artists, policymakers and founders rather than technical sessions or an exhibition floor. The emphasis falls on the societal, creative and ethical dimensions of AI, which makes it a different proposition from the engineering conferences running the same week.

AI Expo Europe 2026

AI Expo Europe 2026 is a regional AI conference and exhibition held 1 to 2 November 2026 at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Bucharest, Romania. The programme covers enterprise AI adoption, automation, data infrastructure and the local startup and outsourcing ecosystem, with an exhibition floor alongside conference stages. It is the main AI business event in Southeast Europe and is most useful for readers tracking adoption and technology services demand across the region's growing engineering base.

Agentic Transformation Summit 2026

Agentic Transformation Summit 2026 is an enterprise focused conference on deploying AI agents inside large organisations, held 4 to 5 November 2026 at the Amsterdam Marriott Hotel. The agenda centres on operating models, governance, change management, process redesign and measuring return on agent deployments, rather than on the engineering of agents themselves. The audience is transformation leaders, operations executives and senior IT buyers, which makes it the business counterpart to the developer oriented agent conferences held the same season.

FT Future of AI Summit 2026

The Financial Times Future of AI Summit 2026 is a two day business, technology and policy conference held 4 to 5 November 2026 in London. Sessions are chaired by FT journalists and focus on AI strategy, regulation, capital allocation and enterprise adoption for senior leaders, with speakers drawn from boardrooms, government and the major labs. It is a boardroom event rather than an engineering conference, and attendance is expensive and deliberately small, which shapes both the audience and the candour of the discussion.

CoRL 2026

CoRL 2026 is the Conference on Robot Learning, the main peer reviewed venue where machine learning and robotics research meet. It runs 9 to 12 November 2026 in Austin, Texas. The programme covers robot foundation models, imitation and reinforcement learning, manipulation, simulation to reality transfer, and embodied agents, with live demonstrations alongside the paper sessions. As robotics companies increasingly build on large pretrained models, CoRL has become one of the more closely watched research conferences outside the core language model venues.

Web Summit 2026

Web Summit 2026 is one of the largest technology and startup conferences in the world, held 9 to 12 November 2026 in Lisbon. AI now dominates the main stages, with programming on foundation models, applied enterprise AI, regulation under the EU AI Act and venture investment, alongside a vast startup exhibition and a structured investor programme. Its scale is the point and also the caveat: it is unmatched for serendipitous meetings, but thinner on technical depth than a specialist AI conference.

Agentic AI Week USA 2026

Agentic AI Week USA 2026 is listed as running 10 to 12 November 2026 in Atlanta, covering deployment, governance and operating models for AI agents inside large organisations. Readers should treat this listing with caution: the organiser URL now redirects to an unrelated summit, and we could not confirm the Atlanta dates against any official source. Verify directly with the organiser before booking travel. If it proceeds, it is positioned as the Southeast enterprise agentic AI meeting, distinct from the October Modev summit in Virginia.

ODSC AI NYC 2026: AI for Work Summit

ODSC AI NYC 2026: AI for Work Summit runs 2 to 3 December 2026 at the Jay Conference Center Bryant Park in New York. Unlike the larger ODSC training conferences, this edition is scoped to how AI changes work itself, covering agent assisted workflows, adoption inside teams, productivity measurement and the operational and governance questions that follow. The audience mixes practitioners with the managers responsible for rolling tools out, which makes it unusually practical for readers facing that problem.
