ScaleUp:AI NYC 2026 was scheduled for October 6, 2026.

The event was billed as a curated audience of 350+ top AI CEOs, builders, enterprise executives, academics, and investors.

It was held at Quorum by Convene, 1221 6th Ave., New York, NY 10020.

The organizer listed AI CEOs, builders, enterprise executives, academics, and investors.

It is most useful for AI founders, enterprise executives and investors who want a small, invitation-style room, since about 350 attendees were expected, Insight Partners managing directors were listed to speak, and the topics covered AI agents in the enterprise and where investors see value accruing. Sponsors such as Oracle, SAP, Adobe and the New York Stock Exchange suggest senior buyer and partner conversations; practitioners wanting hands-on technical training would get less, and the virtual pass was a lighter option for those not in New York.

The day was scheduled to end with a cocktail reception, so an outfit that works from the morning sessions into the evening is typical.
