@gracegongceo: Smart AI 100 2026. What. A. Day! Nearly 80% of the room was founders, C-levels, VPs and investors. Series A founders getting real time with enterprise CIOs. Partners who've backed unicorns trading notes with security chiefs from Fortune 500s. 18 months ago I wanted to build a room where my podcast guests and listeners could actually meet each other. Yesterday, the Presidents of Cisco and ServiceNow were on the stage. Every large technology starts small. The hardest part isn't building it. It's getting it in front of the company that can deploy it at scale. That's the whole reason this summit exists. On stage: C-levels from Cisco, ServiceNow, Atlassian, Datadog, Zoom, Asana, Cerebras, Nebius, 1Password, Neo4j, Chargebee, SailPoint, Facebook (former), Moveworks (former). Founders, C-suites and Presidents of billion dollar companies: Fireworks ($17.5B), Together AI ($8.3B), 1Password ($6.8B), Abridge ($5.3B), Core Automation ($4B), Hippocratic AI ($3.5B), Genspark ($2.6B), Rebellions ($2.34B), Horizon3.ai ($2B), Bedrock Robotics ($1.75B), Resolve AI ($1.5B), You.com ($1.5B), Serval ($1B). The next wave: Manifest OS, Dyna Robotics, Patronus AI, Eudia, HeyGen, General Compute, MotherDuck, Elorian AI, Maxima, Reactor. Partners and Managing Partners from a16z, NEA, Redpoint, Emergence, M12, Kindred (Forbes Midas List), XYZ (Forbes Midas List), SignalFire, Wing, SE Ventures, Seligman, Linea, DTCP Growth, Eclipse, Abstract, Mantis, Striker, N47. To our Founding Partners, Nebius and Zoom, and our Innovation Partners Manifest, Neo4j and Sequoia: this doesn't happen without you.
