Fellows Forum 2026: From Models to Matter | Virtual Registration
Join Fellows Forum 2026, our flagship AI summit, from anywhere.
Fellows Forum is an annual summit of the founders, researchers, and investors shaping the future of AI and robotics. Now in its fourth year, Fellows Forum is taking place September 23-24, 2026 in Menlo Park, CA, co-hosted with Nebius and partnering with NVIDIA. The full summit will be available online through a free livestream, giving virtual attendees access to an exceptional lineup spanning speakers from Google DeepMind, OpenAI, NVIDIA, Microsoft, Replit, Abridge, Periodic Labs, Generalist AI, Nebius, and many more leading companies.
Expanding on the vision of Fellows Forum 2025, which convened hundreds of AI leaders and featured more than 25 unicorn and breakout AI founders, this year’s theme, From Models to Matter: LLMs, AI Infrastructure, Physical AI and AI for Science, reflects the two frontiers defining AI in 2026. Day 1 focuses on the LLM stack: frontier models, reasoning, inference economics, AI infrastructure, agent platforms, enterprise deployment and AI-native applications. Day 2 turns to the physical world: Physical AI, world models, robotics foundation models, simulation, robot data, humanoids and non-humanoids, autonomous labs, and materials science.
