AI Summit 2026 is scheduled for November 6, 2026.

The summit takes place at Hyatt Regency Tysons Corner Center in Tysons, Virginia.

The stated audience includes federal AI leaders and industry experts.

It is most useful for federal technology staff and vendors who sell to agencies, since the speakers include chief AI and data officers from bodies such as NASA, the FBI, CMS and the State Department, and attendees may earn up to 6 CPE credits. Private-sector practitioners with no government angle will get less from it, because the program is framed around scaling AI across agency missions and is organised by a government-focused media group.

Government technology conferences usually see business casual to business professional dress, with suits common among civilian attendees and service members often in uniform.
