Bittensor Commons has scheduled the Exploit Summit 2026 for September 28 and 29 in Montreal. The event will take place at the New City Gas venue, a repurposed industrial site from the 19th century. Organizers selected the city due to its status as a hub for deep learning development and its strategic location for international participants.
The two-day agenda includes workshops, debates, and live demonstrations of subnets. The program focuses on game-theoretic competitive design, which serves as the foundation for the Bittensor network. Currently, more than 100 subnet teams are active within the ecosystem, and the conference aims to bring these builders, researchers, and operators together.
Confirmed speakers include representatives from Affine, Taostats, Manifold Labs, Chutes, Metanova Labs, Macrocosmos, Score, BitMind, 404Gen, Quantum Rings, Tao.com, Swarm, Zeus, Minos, Bitsec, Yanez, Leadpoet, Actual Computer, and PwC France. The organizers plan to announce additional speakers in the future.
The summit is supported by a range of sponsors across several tiers. Platinum sponsors include Affine, Chutes, the Opentensor Foundation, Proof of Talk, Taostats, and Manifold. Gold sponsors are Lium, Score, and KubeTEE, while the Titanium tier features Dendrite. Additional support is provided by various industry partners.
Tickets for the event are currently available for purchase through the official registration page. The organizers have specified that tickets are non-refundable but can be transferred to other individuals. Interested parties can still apply for speaking slots or inquire about sponsorship opportunities via the event's email address.
