9th Woven Conference
9th Annual Woven Conference
For Women in Data and AI
May 8, 2026 | Arcadian Court & Loft, Toronto
401 Bay St., Simpson Tower, 8th Floor | 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM
The first conference in Canada built for women in data and AI. This is year 9.
Since 2018, over 6,000 women and allies have joined us to build a more inclusive industry and expand networks and knowledge that accelerate careers.
The women who come back year after year? They're the ones making the moves: promotions, leadership transitions, better offers.
You can advance on your own. But with the right community? It's faster, and the opportunities expand.
Here's what one day gives you:
✨ Strategic connections - Meet women at your level who understand what you're navigating. Build relationships that support your next career move.
✨ Real talk from leaders - Directors and VPs share what actually worked to get where they are. Not the LinkedIn version. The honest strategies.
✨ Focused learning - Choose your track (Technical, Business, or Executive) and go deep on what matters for your goals right now.
✨ Community that gets it - Spend a full day with women who understand the unique challenges and opportunities in data and AI.
Three Tracks to Choose From
Technical Track - For the builders, engineers, and architects
Algorithm deep dives, tool implementations, hands-on approaches
Business Track - For the strategists, managers, and product owners
Real-world applications, organizational transformation strategies
Executive Track - For the decision-makers, VPs, and founders
Strategic vision, ethical governance, leadership development
