From Pitch to Pilots

The AI week Startup Showcases

Startup Showcases are a signature experience at every AI Week, and we’re now accepting applications.

If you’re building in AI, this is your chance to kick off AI Week by putting your product in front of your city’s newest wave of operators, buyers, and partners. Apply to pitch, meet the people who can help you move faster, and turn the week into real momentum.

What to Expect

AI Week Startup Showcases bring the most solutions-forward AI startups in each host city onto one stage, in front of a room that is actively looking for what’s next.

These showcases are built for real outcomes: customer conversations, pilot opportunities, partnerships, hiring, and distribution. Each participating startup gets a dedicated pitch slot, plus structured time to connect with decision-makers across enterprise, SMB, and public sector teams who are evaluating AI right now.

If you’re building something that drives adoption, improves operations, or delivers measurable value, the AI Week Startup Showcases are where momentum starts.
