LOCATION

DITCH THE CONVENTION CENTER.

Skip the beige ballrooms. Nashville AI Week takes over The Factory at Franklin—an iconic industrial space built for real conversations, not endless hallways. Open, energetic, and packed with room to connect, it puts you in the middle of the community from the moment you arrive.

An empty conference hall with rows of tables set with water bottles and papers, a large illuminated stage with a sign that reads 'The Focused Leader,' and string lights hanging from the ceiling.

A spacious, modern indoor communal space with high ceilings, large windows, and abundant greenery. People are sitting and working at various tables, with some walking around. The decor includes hanging lights, plants, and a mix of industrial and natural elements.

Community Events

Signature Community Experiences

AI Week special events create the highest-value networking of the week—designed for fast introductions, meaningful conversations, and real opportunities with the people building and adopting AI locally.

    Community Happy Hour

    Kick off Nashville AI Week the right way. Join fellow attendees, speakers, and sponsors for an evening of cold drinks, warm introductions, and the kind of unscripted conversations that turn strangers into collaborators. No agenda. No slides. Just good people in the same room, talking about the work that matters to them.

    Women in AI & Tech Breakfast

    An empowering Day 3 kickoff featuring real stories, candid experiences, and insights from women leading AI and emerging technology across industries.
