The upcoming edition of Nearcon will gather builders and researchers shaping a user-first, trust-driven AI economy.
Nearcon 2026 will take place on February 23–24 at San Francisco’s Fort Mason Center, bringing together leading voices at the intersection of AI, privacy, and the open web. As an invite-only gathering, the event focuses on advancing intelligent systems grounded in transparency, trust, and user ownership.
The program includes visionary keynotes, live agent demos, hands-on workshops, and debates on adoption, ethics, and real-world use cases. Attendees will also experience partner activations and connect in a dedicated builders lounge designed to foster collaboration.
More than a traditional conference, Nearcon serves as a civic laboratory where ideas evolve into prototypes and new governance models take shape. As the flagship event of the NEAR ecosystem, it remains one of the most forward-looking forums for exploring the future of intelligence and open technologies.
