AI Infra Builders Social at NeurIPS 2026 — Hosted by SGLang and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)
🎟️ NeurIPS 2026 badge required for entry. Please register at NeurIPS.cc.
This will be the largest official social taking place at NeurIPS on December 8, bringing together more than 200 NeurIPS attendees for an evening of great conversations, food, drinks, and new connections.
AI infrastructure is built at the intersection of research, open source, and production. Researchers push the boundaries of training, inference, and efficiency. Open-source maintainers turn new ideas into reusable tools and frameworks. Production engineers bring these systems to life at scale.
Yet these communities don’t always have the opportunity to exchange perspectives, share practical experiences, and learn from one another.
No product pitches. No formal research presentations. Just the people building AI infrastructure, sharing perspectives, and connecting across communities.
