Activity by year
Three measures on one year axis; each panel has its own scale. 2027, 2028 is still mostly ahead, so its bars are faded and incomplete.
Conferences present at
Distinct conferences each year, split by whether the company sponsored or only had speakers there.

Where they've grown or pulled back
UpSponsored 2 conferences in 2026, up 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.
Moved up 1
Best tier rose between the first and latest year with a ranked tier.
- AWS re:InventGold 2024 → Platinum 2025
Pulled out 1
Not sponsored since 2024 or earlier, though a later event published a complete sponsor list without them.
- ACML (Asian Conference on Machine Learning)last sponsored 2022; the conference ran again in 2023–25
Steady 1
Sponsored in most years of its span at the same tier.
- NeurIPS (Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems)7 of 8 years 2019–26, mostly Title
