Come watch top founders pitch — powered by the team that supports startups at every stage of growth. This is not your typical AI conference. The focus of AI has shifted to the layer beneath — the compute, capital, and policy on which everything is built. This is The Infrastructure Age: the moment when the foundation became the story. For one day during Seattle Tech Week, the people building that foundation meet those who build on it. Founders, operators, investors, policymakers, and business leaders gather alongside the leaders of the state of Washington and UN representatives for a high-signal day that you can’t get anywhere else — where the ecosystem comes together to do business, not to watch. Three stages, named after the world's most powerful supercomputers — Aurora, El Capitan, and Fugaku. 🧭 About the Full Stack From the foundation up, the program covers every layer of AI: · Sovereign AI & Infrastructure · Frontier AI Research · Enterprise AI · Consumer AI · AI in Biotech & Life Sciences The infrastructure is the foundation.
