Where they've grown or pulled back
FlatSponsored 1 conference in 2026, flat from 1 in 2023.
Counted per conference. 2026 is the latest year whose conferences have mostly happened. Tiers use the best tier each year; swatches show the path, oldest first. A conference counts as pulled out only when a later event published a complete sponsor list, since most events don’t say whether their list is complete.
New 1
First sponsored in 2025 or later.
- AI Engineer (World's Fair, Summit and regional editions)first sponsored 2026, unranked tier
Steady 2
Sponsored in most years of its span at the same tier.
- PyTorch Conferenceevery year 2024–25, mostly Silver
- The AI Summitevery year 2021–22, mostly Platinum
Once or on and off 1
No clear direction, or a gap we can’t confirm because later sponsor lists are incomplete.
- JupyterCononce, 2023, Platinum
Lookalikes
Companies with the most similar conference footprint: they sponsor and speak at the same conferences. Bars are cosine similarity, from 0 (nothing shared) to 1 (identical).
