Fortune Brainstorm Tech 2026 is set to be outstanding

(SeaPRwire) –   I’m very enthusiastic about our upcoming 25th anniversary Brainstorm Tech, taking place June 8 to 10 in Aspen.

This year’s event is particularly meaningful. For the first time in nearly ten years, we are returning to Brainstorm’s spiritual base. We have hosted the event 16 times in Aspen before, with all but four gatherings held at the Aspen Institute campus, where much of our identity was shaped.

We are also fortunate to welcome back several longtime contributors. Brainstorm’s founding editorial leader, David Kirkpatrick, will be with us. Several of this year’s speakers—including Steve Case, Mark Hoplamazian, Meg Whitman, Jim Lanzone, Glenn Fogel, Peggy Johnson, Hans Tung, Zack Bogue, and Bill Briggs—are participants with deep, multi-decade involvement in Brainstorm.

This does not mean we are ignoring what is new and emerging. After all, this is Brainstorm.

We begin on Sunday night with a special screening of part of the documentary Your Attention Please, followed by a Q&A with two CEOs on the digital attention economy. Monday starts early, with morning options including hiking, biking, fishing, horseback riding, and a Jeep tour. (Dress accordingly.) The mainstage program opens in the afternoon with Anthropic’s Claude Code lead Boris Cherny, followed by perspectives from Bloomberg Beta’s Karin Klein, Base Power’s Zach Dell, Twitch’s Dan Clancy, Aaru’s Ned Koh, Mistral’s Timothée Lacroix, Tubi’s Anjali Sud, and Anduril’s Brian Schimpf. We will then hear from Warner Music chief Robert Kyncl and multidisciplinary artist Grimes before moving into roundtables on AI governance, defense technology, and managing the pace of change. Refreshments will be available at the home of Laura and Gary Lauder, after which we will break for dinner.

Tuesday is full and tightly scheduled. Morning yoga precedes three breakfast roundtables—on the workforce, AI pilots, and trust—then the mainstage resumes. XBOX CEO Asha Sharma and comedian Trevor Noah open the session; NVIDIA, Lila Sciences, SambaNova, Adaption Labs, and Wonder’s Marc Lore follow. Discussions will cover Mars rovers, customer journeys, global logistics, and competitive advantage (with Olympian Shaun White) before lunch. Booking’s Glenn Fogel and real estate leader Ryan Serhant will anchor the afternoon, addressing spatial intelligence, technological shifts, cultural influence, health outcomes, the so-called SaaSpocalypse, agentic shopping, and the end of doomscrolling. We will conclude with Disney alumna and space CEO Bridgit Mendler, then head into Aspen for curated dining experiences under “Night Out in Aspen.”

Before departing, join one final session Wednesday morning: choose from three in-depth discussions led by the authors of our technology newsletters—Term Sheet’s Allie Garfinkle, Eye on AI’s Jeremy Kahn, and Tech’s editor, myself.

We are two weeks away from what should be an exceptional experience. Please rest, hydrate, and prepare your thinking—it will be intense. I look forward to seeing you in Aspen.

If you cannot attend Brainstorm Tech this year, watch a livestream of the mainstage program beginning June 8 and register your interest for our upcoming Brainstorm AI, December 7 to 8 in San Francisco.
