ODSC AI NYC 2026 — AI for Work Summit

ODSC AI NYC 2026, the AI for Work Summit, is a two-day in-person AI adoption conference at the Jay Conference Center Bryant Park, 109 West 39th Street, New York City, on December 2-3, 2026. Run by ODSC AI, it is smaller and more focused than ODSC's East and West shows, capped at about 450 seats, and built around turning AI pilots into production workflows. The programme is organised by role, not by vendor: a Build track for engineers creating agents, RAG systems and production workflows; Apply for business staff automating work without code; Lead for executives owning governance, ROI and adoption; and AI Engineering Fundamentals. It offers 30+ sessions and hands-on workshops.

Built for a leader whose company already has an AI initiative that is not shipping. In two days a CTO or VP can send engineers to the Build track while product, operations and business staff take Apply, and attend the Lead track on governance, evaluation and ROI themselves. The shared question at the close — what to build, test, change or stop next — gives the team one aligned action list. Being in Midtown keeps travel cost minimal for East Coast teams.

• ✓Build track: agents, RAG systems and production workflows for engineers
• ✓Apply: AI in Your Workflow track for no-code business users in sales, marketing, finance and HR

• ✓Hands-on labs across business functions (30+ sessions and workshops)
