- Notes
- speakers: keynotes only (invited talks from the NeurIPS virtual site). Main site; satellites in Atlanta and Paris (separate editions). Venue not named on neurips.cc (third-party listings say ICC Sydney). Sponsor list is the single combined 2026 list for all three sites (neurips.cc/virtual/2026/sponsor_list, identical on each site's page); it contains several tier blocks per level that appear to be per-site (e.g. a Paris-looking block with Inria, Hi! Paris, PR[AI]RIE, SSFAM) but sites are not labelled, so all are recorded here; exact duplicates within a tier removed. Virtual-only pass: $50 student / $200 academic / $275 industry.
