SuperAI Singapore 2026 Sells Out as 10,000 Global AI Leaders Gather to Discuss the Future of Artificial Intelligence

Asia’s largest AI event brings together OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Cerebras, Mistral AI, MiniMax, investors, startups and researchers as Singapore strengthens its position as a global AI hub.

SINGAPORE, June 11, 2026 – Artificial intelligence has firmly established itself as one of the defining technologies of the decade, and nowhere is that more evident this week than in Singapore, where SuperAI Singapore 2026 has officially sold out, drawing 10,000 attendees from more than 150 countries to what organisers describe as Asia’s largest AI event.

Held at Marina Bay Sands, the event brings together over 1,500 AI companies spanning frontier model developers, infrastructure providers, enterprise technology firms, investors, startups, researchers and policymakers. The scale of participation reflects the rapid globalisation of AI and Singapore’s growing role as a neutral hub connecting innovation ecosystems from East and West.

As competition intensifies between AI powerhouses in the United States, China and Europe, SuperAI has emerged as one of the few platforms where leaders from these regions can engage directly, share ideas and explore collaboration opportunities.

This year’s event comes at a pivotal moment for the industry as AI transitions from breakthrough research and model development towards large-scale enterprise deployment and real-world applications.

Singapore Emerges as a Global Meeting Point for AI

The 2026 edition of SuperAI highlights the increasingly multipolar nature of the AI ecosystem. Industry leaders from across the AI value chain are participating, including experts in frontier models, semiconductors, cloud infrastructure, robotics, biointelligence, space technology and financial services.

Among the headline speakers are technology investor and entrepreneur Balaji Srinivasan, MIT physicist and AI researcher Max Tegmark, technology analyst Benedict Evans, Andy Hock of Cerebras Systems, Ramine Tinati of Google DeepMind, Min-Liang Tan of Razer, Robbie Schingler of Planet Labs and Will Bryk of Exa.

More than 150 speakers are scheduled to participate in discussions examining how AI is reshaping industries and creating new economic opportunities globally.

The event also features major technology companies and infrastructure providers, including Microsoft Azure, Bright Data, Plaud, Oxylabs and WEKA as Diamond Partners.

For Singapore, the event reinforces the country’s ambition to position itself as a leading AI innovation and deployment hub in Asia. Its strong digital infrastructure, regulatory environment, investment ecosystem and international connectivity have made it an attractive base for AI companies seeking regional expansion.

From AI Infrastructure to Startup Innovation

A major theme at this year’s gathering is the movement of AI from research laboratories into commercial deployment. The exhibition has expanded to three floors for the first time featuring more than 150 exhibitors across AI infrastructure, cloud computing, robotics, deep technology and enterprise AI solutions.

Participating organisations include infrastructure leaders Arm, Alibaba Cloud and Vercel, frontier AI company Mistral AI, enterprise data platform Snowflake and dozens of emerging AI-native startups developing next-generation applications.

The event’s programming has been designed to showcase the complete AI innovation lifecycle, from idea generation and software development through to funding, scaling and commercial deployment.

One of the key attractions is the 36-hour NEXT Hackathon, which brings together 200 developers and builders competing for more than US$200,000 in prizes. Supported by AWS, Vercel, Exa, Stripe and Razer, the hackathon provides a platform for participants to build and test new AI-powered solutions under real-world conditions.

Meanwhile, the Genesis Startup Competition offers access to US$2.3 million in prize capital and support for emerging AI entrepreneurs. Powered by Microsoft for Startups and OpenAI, the programme aims to accelerate the next generation of AI-focused companies and founders.

Alongside these flagship initiatives, attendees can participate in investor matchmaking sessions, workshops, private networking events, technical demonstrations and specialised industry forums.

AI Becomes a City-Wide Conversation

Beyond Marina Bay Sands, the influence of SuperAI extends across Singapore through Singapore AI Week, a city-wide programme running from 8 to 14 June.

The initiative includes more than 100 satellite events hosted independently by organisations such as OpenAI, Lightspeed, Notion, Alibaba Cloud, HSBC, Stripe, SparkLabs and the Global FinTech Network.

These activities range from founder dinners and investor roundtables to hackathons, workshops, demo days and networking sessions, transforming Singapore into a week-long focal point for global AI discussions.

The expanded ecosystem reflects the growing maturity of Asia’s AI sector and increasing demand for platforms that connect entrepreneurs, researchers, enterprises and investors.

While much of the AI conversation over the past two years has focused on model performance and technological breakthroughs, SuperAI 2026 highlights a broader shift towards deployment, commercialisation and real-world impact.

The event also underscores Asia’s growing influence in shaping the future direction of artificial intelligence, not only as a consumer of technology but increasingly as a centre for innovation, investment and enterprise adoption.

With attendance at capacity and participation spanning every major AI region, SuperAI Singapore 2026 signals both the accelerating momentum of the AI economy and Singapore’s emergence as one of its most important global convening points.

Organisers have already announced that SuperAI will return to Marina Bay Sands on 8 and 9 September 2027.
