Great Lakes AI Week
About this Event
Great Lakes AI Week is a three-day AI conference built for the people actually shaping what comes next. From November 10–12, 2026 between BGSU, Loft 419 and UT, the event brings together enterprise leaders, founders, operators, practitioners, investors, and innovators for practical conversations about AI adoption, implementation, and business impact. It is designed to go beyond hype and focus on what is actually working inside organizations today.
Attendees can expect a mix of high-impact programming, startup energy, and meaningful networking. Great Lakes AI Week is positioned around real use cases, practical playbooks, and the connections that move deals, pilots, partnerships, and careers forward. The broader AI Week programming around Toledo also includes signature community-driven events that help bring the region’s AI ecosystem into one room.
Whether you are exploring AI for your business, scaling adoption across your team, building an AI company, or looking to meet the people driving innovation across Toledo, this is where the city’s AI community gathers. Great Lakes AI Week is built with the community, not just for it, making it a strong fit for anyone who wants practical insight and high-value relationships, not just another conference badge.
