AI Native Summit - SF TechWeek 2026
- WHO IT IS FOR: Engineers, founders, AI researchers, infrastructure teams, and startup operators building AI-native systems.
- WHAT IT IS ABOUT: A high-intensity technical summit focused on the development, orchestration, and scaling of AI-native applications.
- FORMAT: A hybrid event featuring continuous technical talks, hands-on build labs, and the AINative Hack Champion finals.
Experience the AI Native Summit during SF TechWeek 2026, a high-signal gathering designed specifically for those who build. Moving beyond the traditional conference model, this event eliminates the fluff to focus on the core of AI development, from multi-agent orchestration and GPU optimization to vector databases and model fine-tuning. Whether you are scaling infrastructure or refining AI-native workflows, this is where the industry's top technical minds converge to share real-world case studies.
Attendees can choose between two intensive tracks: a stream of deep-dive technical sessions and hands-on Build Labs. In the labs, you'll move from theory to code using tools like AIKit and ZeroDB to ship functional projects in real-time. The event culminates in the AINative Hack Champion 2026 Finals, where top regional winning teams from across the country compete for a community-powered prize pool starting at $50,000.
