AI Summit 2025: Where Innovation Meets Intention
After welcoming 250+ attendees, 40 speakers, and 30 sessions over two days in 2024 — AI Summit returns this October with a sharper focus, a tighter format, and a bold new mission.
This year, we’re going more curated - One powerful day. Curated conversations. Only what truly matters.
AI Summit 2025 is an intimate, high-impact gathering for founders, researchers, creatives, and decision-makers who aren’t just building AI — but reimagining its role in society, business, and everyday life.
We’re spotlighting:
🌟 Breakthrough startups changing the game
🛠️ Hands-on education to upskill and inspire
🧠 Future-shaping ideas from bold minds
📦 Tools and resources to bring innovation to life
But here’s what makes this summit truly different:
Your support — whether through speaking, volunteering, or simply showing up — fuels this community-driven mission.
Together, we’re building something more meaningful than just another conference.
This isn’t about hype.
It’s about legacy. It’s about intention. It’s about building something lasting.
AI Summit is organized by the Canadian Deep Tech Startup Association — a volunteer-run nonprofit dedicated to empowering the next wave of builders and thinkers in AI and emerging technology. We’re not backed by big VC. We’re backed by people who care.
