What actually happens in the room

Five things runningall weekend long

Not a lecture hall with a hallway. Five live production surfaces run in parallel — every one of them something you can join, screen on, build in, record in, or put your brand on.

  • All weekend · Learner track

    Live training workshops

    Hands-on, laptop-open sessions taught by operators running these pipelines for real money — cinema and video, publishing and podcasting, merch, courses, and live production.

    If you hold a pass
    Leave with working prompts, templates, and a pipeline you rebuilt in the room.
    If you sponsor or exhibit
    Sponsor a workshop room and put your tool in the hands of every builder in it.
  • Saturday night · Main stage

    The AI Media Showcase

    Three screening blocks of finished AI-made work — shorts, trailers, music videos, ads, graphic novels, games, apps, and sites — judged live with the makers in the audience.

    If you hold a pass
    Screen your work on the big screen, or watch the premiere with every pass.
    If you sponsor or exhibit
    Present a screening block or award and get your name on the winner's moment.
  • Saturday · Builder track

    The Summit Hackathon

    Teams form on site, the brief drops cold, and everything shipped that day demos on stage. Cash prizes, premium gifts, and bragging rights announced at the Victory Party.

    If you hold a pass
    Ship a real product in a day and demo it in front of the whole room.
    If you sponsor or exhibit
    Put your API in the brief and co-brand the prize the winners hold up.
  • All weekend · Interview Me TV

    Live podcasting studio

    A staffed on-floor studio recording interviews, panels, and episodes across all three days. Book a slot, sit down, and walk out with broadcast-grade footage of yourself.

    If you hold a pass
    A produced interview clip you own — for your show, your reel, and your pitch deck.
    If you sponsor or exhibit
    Own the set: branded backdrop, host reads, and every episode carrying your name.
  • All weekend · Exhibit Hall

    Vendors & exhibitors

    The floor where the tools live. Booths and foyer tables open early each morning, with the network lunch scheduled straight into the hall for peak traffic.

    If you hold a pass
    Try the tools in person and talk to the people who actually built them.
    If you sponsor or exhibit
    10x10 booths with power and Wi-Fi, badge scanning, and lead capture that follows up.
  • All five, one badge

    Every pass gets you into all of it

    Workshops, the showcase, the hackathon, the studio floor, and the exhibit hall are included — the pass tier changes your seat, your access windows, and what you take home afterward.

A festival block of finished work, the hackathon teams screening what they shipped that same day, and demo day for the apps and sites built on the builder track. Real screen, real jury, real reactions — included with every pass.

The screening is in the room only. It is not streamed and there is no replay.

Exhibit Hall · All three days
