[ AI INFRA SUMMIT 6 ] · DEC 9 · SAN FRANCISCOAI INFRA SUMMIT → Dec’09 is the definitive gathering for those who aren’t just adapting to the AI era—they’re engineering it.
// 01 - Why Attend
AI’s future depends on the infrastructure we build today. From GPUs and liquid cooling to sovereign clouds and edge AI, the stakes are massive—and growing.
Hear from and meet top CxOs, architects, and investors.
Sessions packed with ground-truth deployments, not hand-waving hype.
Private roundtables, 1:1s, and innovation showcases built to create dealflow.
AI infrastructure demand is exploding. Learn where to invest and how to scale.

From GPU capacity to enterprise product.
The economics of inference.
Enterprise AI at scale.
What really limits the buildout. Compute is no longer the only bottleneck: capital, power and communities, and control of data now set the pace.
Agent workloads, inference control planes, and trust and identity for agents.

More sessions and speakers to come. Lineup subject to change.
The challenge is no longer just delivering GPUs, cooling, and network capacity. It is building the bridge from those components to an enterprise product customers can actually buy.
Victor Kuarsingh, Former Capital One / OCI
Ravi Singh, AMD
Why security, observability, and operations need to work together across the AI stack, why the network is central to that approach, and how these choices can shorten time to first token.
Murali Gandluru, Cisco
Infrastructure choices shape cost per token, performance, and the flexibility to grow. Upscale shares its Token Fabric vision and how an open, unified network architecture can improve the economics of AI.
Aravind Srikumar, Upscale
Hardware doesn’t produce tokens on its own, and agents don’t run on silicon directly. How fast bare metal becomes usable compute, what’s slowing that pipeline down, and why solving it will define the next phase of AI infrastructure.
Presented by Supermicro
The newest enterprise asset is an intelligence asset. Where AI runs determines where data resides, who controls the intelligence, and what governance can actually be enforced.
Lamia Youseff, Jazz Computing
Buying GPUs is the easy part. Keeping them busy is where NeoClouds win or lose, and the network is usually why. No vendor pitches, straight to operations.
John Brzozowski, IPClearAndy Holland, DriveNetsDrew Pletcher, Lightning AI
$250B in data center projects paused or cancelled in the last year. Moratoriums and bans in over half of US states. How the industry drives responsible development in the face of the biggest growth in history.
Dean Nelson, iMasons
Capital, not compute, is becoming the gating factor in AI infrastructure. Is it truly grade-A customers or bust? And which financing structures survive a correction?
David Goldman, Celesta CapitalDavid Hefter, BlackRockShesh S, SK Telecom Ventures
Every enterprise has an AI pilot. Few have AI in production. Operators who’ve crossed the chasm on the real blockers, and what comes next when AI shifts from tool to teammate.
Roger Chen, USFVyoma Gajjar, ServiceNowAkansha Aggarwal, Uber Freight
Agents don’t have badges, MFA prompts, or HR files, but they need credentials, permissions, and audit trails just the same. How to authenticate them, scope their access, and revoke them when something goes wrong.
Poonacha Kongetira, ClassieShishir Tewari, Procore TechnologiesHira Dangol, GenEye Labs
Production AI workloads look nothing like they did 18 months ago. How leading teams are rethinking the inference stack end-to-end to optimize cost per inference without sacrificing quality.
Kiran Kamity, CiscoSimran Arora, Together AI
Regulated enterprises can’t send sensitive data to a shared cloud endpoint and hope for the best. What it takes to own the full AI stack, from on-prem deployment to model control.
System-level design is becoming as important as model capability. Six major shifts shaping the next generation of AI systems, from model orchestration to agentic execution.
Wanyu Bian, AppleSandhya Subramani, AWS
Enterprises are rolling out the AI use cases that work and hitting new questions about token costs, connectivity, and compute. Enterprise AI leaders and infrastructure providers on where the two sides meet.
Liran Zvibel, WEKA
One day, engineered end-to-end: a tight 15-minute main-stage cadence, curated breakouts, live demos, 1:1 deal-flow, giveaways, and hallway time that actually compounds. MC’d, timed, zero filler — then a happy hour and afterparty where the real deals get done.
Every summit is programmed from a standing start. No recycled panels, no pay-to-play keynotes: sessions are sourced from what operators are shipping and what capital is chasing right now, then pressure-tested with the community until the agenda reads like a map of the market.
Read the last four agendas side by side and watch the story move: foundations and sovereign AI in 2024, the token economy and energy in early 2025, 200kW racks and cost-per-inference by November, stranded power and the agentic enterprise in 2026. Expos book big logos. We program the zeitgeist.

Enjoyed meeting some great people, and also learning from those in the trenches and doing the work in AI
Found the conference very educational, well organized, and comfortable. Presenters were excellent and well prepared. Loved the 15-minute speaker cadence - kept things fresh. Future suggestion to encourage participation from audience - use of interactive tools to vote on topics or to submit questions for speaker. Consider a roundup for 30 minutes of all speakers to address questions that could not be answered during the time slot. Just an idea that I would enjoy but all in all, great show!
Love it, learned a few new things and great networking opportunities. Thank you!
Amazing group of speaker and attendees. Especially loved the ClawCamp content in the Expo area!
Only thing I’d tweak is the day. As coming to support my team from Dallas and being over late - forced me to return home on Saturday.
Dope event!! Really Enjoyed it.
Awesome organization, great programme. The location was a bit chaotic, but still. A+ :)
Great Conference!
