The Wisconsin Technology Council will host the 2026 Wisconsin Tech Summit on Thursday, April 30, at Oshkosh Corp. headquarters in Oshkosh.
Unlike in previous years, when the Tech Summit focused on strategic meetings between major firms and emerging companies, the 2026 event will center exclusively on technology, with a major emphasis on artificial intelligence. Attendees will hear directly from chief information officers and other experts about how their organizations are using AI and related technologies in real-world applications across Wisconsin’s core industries.
“We’re excited to evolve the Wisconsin Tech Summit in 2026,” said Maggie Brickerman, president of the Wisconsin Technology Council. “By shifting the focus to the technology itself — especially artificial intelligence — we’re creating a space where CIOs, innovators and practitioners can share real-world insights that matter to Wisconsin companies and communities.”
The one-day summit will highlight four key sectors: health care, financial services, agriculture and energy, and manufacturing, offering insights into how AI is shaping innovation and competitiveness statewide.
Registration information will be available soon.
