Sessions


































One day, one stage. Talks, panels and live demos at The Masonic, San Francisco — 9am to 6pm.
As world models move from generating pixels to understanding and acting in physical space, join Runway co-CEO Anastasis Germanidis, CTO Kamil Sindi, CPO Anthony Maggio and more to hear the latest updates and announcements from Runway. We'll detail our vision for the future of real-world intelligence, with spotlights on Runway Robotics, real-time video and Runway Dev.
Every model Runway ships starts as a research decision few outside the company ever see. Join Runway co-CEO Anastasis Germanidis and Research Leads Jimei Yang and Katie Lewis Grumman for an in-depth Q&A.
How is the U.S. approaching the policy questions AI keeps raising? Senior Counselor to Governor Gavin Newsom Vivek Viswanathan, Black Forest Labs Head of Public Policy Ben Brooks and Wilson Sonsini Partner and former FTC Chair Maureen Ohlhausen share perspectives from inside both government and industry on where AI regulation is headed next. This panel offers a ground-level view of how policy in America is taking shape.
World models have gone from powerful video generators to a training environment for agents and robotics. Join NVIDIA VP of Cosmos Lab Ming-Yu Liu, Google DeepMind Principal Research Scientist Jon Barron and Wayve Labs Research Director Alexander Toshev for a conversation on what it actually takes to close the gap between simulation and the real world. This panel brings together three of the field's leading researchers to explore where world models go next.
AI policy no longer stops at the border — it shapes alliances, competition and national security strategy. Join Julian Simcock, Director of Harvard's Program on Diplomacy and Statecraft, and Google DeepMind Head of US National Security and Partnerships Rick Ingram for a conversation on how AI labs, large enterprises and nation states are navigating AI's growing role in geopolitics.
Most enterprise creative teams have already run the AI pilot. The harder work starts when that experiment has to become a repeatable part of how a global brand produces and ships work. Join Salesforce's Shane Tapp, Gamma Chief AI Officer Deeni Fatiha and Adobe Director Morgan Prygrocki as they discuss what changes when creative AI moves out of the test environment and into production.
What does it take to build a robot that can act intelligently anywhere? Join The Bot Company Co-Founder and CTO Paril Jain and Physical Intelligence Co-Founder Quan Vuong for a conversation on the different paths the field is taking toward general-purpose robotics.
Warehouses and factory floors don't hold still for a robot — people move, tasks change and the layout shifts by the hour. Join Ultra Co-Founder Chetan Parthiban, Standard Bots Head of Software Lee Gross and Noble Machines CTO Wen-Loong Ma, who are deploying robots into exactly these environments, alongside Sieve CEO and Co-Founder Mokshith Voodarla, for a conversation on what they've learned putting robots to work in unpredictable, human-filled spaces.
Every frontier model is bounded by its compute and data long before anyone writes a line of training code. Anyscale co-founder Robert Nishihara, Richard Ahlfeld, SVP of Physical AI at CoreWeave and Runware co-founder Ioana Hreninciuc get into what it actually takes to train at scale: keeping massive clusters fed, building data pipelines that don't stall and the failure modes nobody warns you about.
Building an AI feature is one thing. Getting creatives and marketers to actually use it, and pay for it, is another. Join Canva Head of AI Research Stefano Corazza, ElevenLabs CRO Ashley Kramer and Nebius CMO Lindsey Irvine for a conversation on what it takes to build, ship and commercialize AI products that creative professionals actually adopt, and how marketing leaders can get real value out of AI products. This panel offers a builder's-eye view of what turns a promising AI feature into a real business.
Intelligence is moving off the screen and into the world we build, work and live in. Runway co-CEO Cristóbal Valenzuela closes out the day with his take on what today's conversations mean, and where Runway goes from here.
Across a full day of talks in San Francisco, the Runway AI Summit features executives, builders, researchers and investors diving deep into real-world applications of AI: how it's scaling creative campaigns, enabling new video-based experiences, accelerating robotics deployments, reshaping global policy and transforming enterprises at every level.
