Flower Labs announced Flower AI Day 2026, taking place September 30 at The Pearl in San Francisco, themed around "collaborative superintelligence" — the idea that open agents and models working together, not isolated closed models, now define the AI frontier.
The speaker lineup includes Nicolas Dessaigne (GP at Y Combinator, co-founder of Algolia, which grew to a 350-person team), Lucas Atkins (CTO, Arcee AI), Tanya Roosta (AMD), James Casaletto (NASA), Jared Josleyn (Sanofi), and Anthony Annunziata (founder of AI Alliance / IBM), plus Flower CEO Daniel Beutel and CSO Nic Lane.
The program features technical talks, new Flower tech demos, firesides and panels, with 340+ attendees already registered.
