How to choose AI Research conferences

These pointers are based on the 12 events on this page right now.

  • These are research conferences. Check the paper and abstract deadlines if you want to submit, and the registration dates if you only want to attend.
  • Start with the calendar. 4 of the 12 start within the next 90 days, so travel and ticket decisions are close. The earliest is InnoComp 2026 on November 9, 2026.
  • Plan around busy months. November 2026 has the most (2), which is useful if you want to combine trips and awkward if two events you like overlap.
  • Look at where they are. These events run in 12 cities, so check travel time and visa needs early. 5 have an online option.
  • Confirm on the official site. Each listing links to the organizer, where final dates, prices and agendas are published. Our summaries can lag behind late changes.
