Global Data & AI Virtual Tech Conference 2026

Description

Global Data & AI Virtual Tech Conference 2026 is an online conference running 22–24 August 2026, with a focus on RAG systems and AI-native observability. ## Explore modern data and AI infrastructure This three-day virtual technology conference offers an opportunity to engage with two important areas of contemporary AI engineering: retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and observability designed for AI-native systems. Its online format makes the event accessible to attendees regardless of location, without requiring travel to a physical venue. RAG systems combine information retrieval with generative AI, helping applications produce responses grounded in relevant data. AI-native observability addresses the challenge of understanding how AI applications and their supporting infrastructure behave once deployed. Together, these subjects connect the creation of data-informed AI experiences with the practical work of monitoring and operating them. Based on the topics highlighted in the event listing, the conference will be particularly relevant to: - Data and AI engineers working with modern application architectures - Developers building or evaluating RAG-based products - Platform and infrastructure practitioners interested in AI operations - Technical leaders exploring the requirements of production AI systems - Builders who want a broader view of the relationship between data, retrieval, generation and observability ## Event format The conference takes place **entirely online from Saturday 22 August to Monday 24 August 2026**. The virtual, multi-day format gives participants the flexibility to follow the event remotely while exploring technical themes spanning data systems and applied AI. The current public event page does not provide a detailed session timetable, speaker list, experience-level guidance or information about recordings and audience participation. Prospective attendees should therefore check the registration page for future programme announcements, access instructions and any updated scheduling details. No time zone is specified in the available listing, which may be important for participants attending internationally. For developers and technical teams examining how AI systems retrieve trusted context—and how those systems can be observed in production—this conference provides a focused date for the 2026 calendar.
