As the AI field continues to evolve rapidly, we aim to provide a platform for the innovators driving the conversation to take center stage.

How to become a Sessions: AI speaker

Here’s the process: Simply click the “Apply to Speak” button and submit your topic on the event page. We welcome a wide range of topics, from startups in the AI space to emerging tools, infrastructure, and teams that support innovation, and beyond. Your idea might be something entirely new and groundbreaking!

Our TechCrunch audience will then vote on the submitted topics and select the sessions that will comprise the programming for our AI industry event.

If your topic is chosen, you’ll not only lead a discussion and earn recognition but also gain access to our exclusive main stage AI event programming, additional breakout sessions, and opportunities for small-group or one-on-one networking. You might even find your next investor or team member at the event!
