The AI Summit New York

If you live in NYC and are looking for a way to meet AI leaders, The AI Summit New York is the place in December.

The AI Summit New York is a premier event aimed at showcasing the potential of applied AI. The summit features a Shark Tank-style competition where 30 startups get three minutes each to deliver their elevator pitches in Round One. The top 5 startups from this round then face a 10-minute questioning session from judges, who provide constructive feedback before selecting a winner. All participating startups benefit from a full-day mentoring program and in-depth Q&A sessions to improve their chances of success.

The event attracts leaders from diverse sectors including healthcare, aerospace, banking, insurance, government, and retail, making it an ideal platform for those looking to get funded, educated, and connected in the AI space. Attendees include representatives from the White House, American Express, Shell, EY, Sony, JP Morgan, and more.

The event is a business conference and quite expensive for a paid pass ($1399-$1999 for the two-day event) but there is a free expo pass available until September 30. You can register for free here.
