The AI Engineer Code Summit is the #1 technical conference in the world for AI engineers and leadership (CTOs & VPs of AI) to meet, learn, and advance the field of AI Coding. Speakers and sponsors of our past events include founders and senior leaders of DeepMind, OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, Cohere, Mistral, Midjourney, Cursor, Cognition, Vercel, Cartesia, NVIDIA, Groq, Crusoe, Together.ai, Fireworks, LangChain, LlamaIndex, Databricks, Neo4j, MongoDB, GitHub, Microsoft, Google, AWS and more.
We are convening the top Coding Agent builders in the field to share their work, discuss problems, and recap 2025 and preview 2026 in AI Coding. Attendees are invite only for a highly curated experience. Join us!
The AI Engineer Summit
is the event to discover what's now and
What's Next
No theoretical promissory hooplah. Just engineers and founders on the cutting edge of AI Engineering, sharing their knowledge.
AI Engineering moves fast. Meet the engineers & founders behind the companies who are innovating at the edge of what's possible -- and building a better future.
The hallway track is buzzing with AI Engineers & founders. Every conversation you have -- facilitated with moderators or open -- is ensure to educate & inspire.
We've curated 6+ workshops for you to choose from, servicing everyone from experienced engineers just starting with AI Engineering, to experienced AI engineers looking to get an edge on the competition.
Get matched with people we (er, our algo) thinks will provide you with value. Refine your results by adding more information to your profile.
Stimulation for your brain, inspiration for your soul, education for your business. And excellent food to power you through the excitement!
In numbers, there's probably going to be significantly more AI Engineers than there are ML engineers / LLM engineers. One can be quite successful in this role without ever training anything.

We've hand-selected the top builders and leaders in AI Engineering to gather in one place to not only learn from speakers, but also to drive the industry forward by discovering, discussing, and solving on the hard problems, together.
Exclusive to speakers and leadership track attendees, the evening welcome reception is an opportunity to register early, meet and chat with one another, and mingle with speaekrs and exhibitors. We'll also feature talks in the expo along with hors d'oeuvres and drinks.
Leadership Track Sessions, 8:00am - 5:00pm - Our highest reviewed track: for CTOs, VPs of AI and other technical/engineering leaders. How do you effectively lead an AI Product or Engineering team in 2025? Defining AI Strategy, technical direction, org design, hiring/growing, and build/buy decisions. Executive briefings and roundtables on AI platform engineering, model building, evals and LLM Ops, inference optimization, code maintenance and technical debt, AI Engineer hiring, and more, directly from the top CEOs and technical leaders working in this space, from OpenAI, Anthropic, LinkedIn, FIS, Booking.com, Writer, Privacera, Contextual, Arize, Arista, Datadog, and more.
Evening Reception: 4:00pm - 7:00pm (both tracks) - Engineering track attendees are invited to join us starting at 4:00pm for this onsite evening social in the hallway and expo for networking, discussions, and presentations.
The hottest topic for AI Engineers: how do you turn non-deterministic, constantly advancing LLMs into reliable, useful agents? We're excited to feature top startups and frameworks powering the agent revolution here from OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepMind, Blackrock, Jane Street, Bloomberg, Codeium, SuperDial, and more.
Note: this day's sessions are exclusive to "Engineering Track" and "Bundle Track" tickeholders only.
In-person Workshops - Get Hands on Keyboard with deep dive, long form workshops from OpenAI, Anthropic, and more.
Livestream Sessions - Learn from additional sessions in our exclusive online track from anywhere in the world! Subscribe on YouTube and join mailing list so you don't miss it!
Come for the Code Summit, stay for the NYC AI scene!
Many people organize side events around our Summits, and we help promote them for free. Past NYC events include:
With the world's top AI Engineers flying in to NYC, there are lots of meetings and side events that will be organized in the surrounding days. We recommend flying in for the whole weekend from Tuesday through Sunday so as not to miss out.
If you are organizing an NYC AI event around the week of Nov 19-23, please get in touch with us to list on our calendar for attendees to find you!
Unlike the World's Fair, this is a single track per day conference. No paradox of choice, more focus and brutally curated to only the best. The first conference day is the AI Leadership track for CTOs and VPs of AI and the second is Agent Engineering track for top tier AI Engineers. You can walk the Summit Expo (ft. 10+ booths across the AI Engineering landscape) on any of the 2 days. The last day is the AI Engineer Workshops and online livestream day.
There are also plenty of breaks for the most important track of all: the hallway track!
Our schedule is not yet published, check back soon but you can look at our track record of past conferences :)
There are roughly two orders of magnitude more software engineers than there are machine learning engineers. By building good tools, we think it is possible for AI Engineers to use machine learning in the same way they can use normal software.

We've carefully curated a sponsor expo & non-exhibiting sponsors who are relevant, interesting, and pushing the boundaries of the AI Engineering ecosystem. These are the companies that are building & innovating with AI — from Devtools & Infra to Vector DBs & Open Models. Learn more about each of the companies by clicking on their logo below, and meet & discuss with their founders & engineering representatives at the summit to learn how they can help you take your company, product, and internal processes to unparalleled heights.
We are currently finalizing our sponsor list and will sell out soon. Contact us at sponsorships@ai.engineer if you would like sponsor information.
