Thank You for Being a Vital Part of Our 9th Annual LDV Vision Summit!
It’s been 9 years since we started hosting our Annual LDV Vision Summit – the premier global gathering in visual tech.
In 2023, for the third year in a row, we hosted our summit virtually. While we like in-person events, handshakes, and networking, we see our 9th Annual LDV Vision Summit as a truly global event, with no boundaries and no fees to get the latest update on all things visual tech!
This year again, we welcomed top technologists, investors, and entrepreneurs to discuss cutting-edge computer vision, machine learning and AI solutions to improve the world we live in.
About a thousand people tuned in from all around the world to listen to expert speakers from DeepMind, Mural, Snap, BioAge, Synthesia, Salesforce, Harvard Medical School, Insight Partners, Useful Sensors, Conviction, Niels Bohr Institute, Air Street Capital, Uizard, Pano, Humanity, Northeastern University, Seedcamp, Forbes, and more.
We hope our 3 fireside chats, 12 lightning keynotes & 2 panels got you inspired by the incredible opportunities for visual tech to improve business and society. You can always re/watch select sessions on our LDV YouTube channel.
A special thank you goes to all of our speakers and all of you attendees as our summit would not exist without your collaboration!
