Great Lakes AI Week 2026
📅 Tuesday, 10 November 2026 → Thursday, 12 November 2026 in 130 days
Great Lakes AI Week is a three-day, implementation-focused AI summit across north-west Ohio (Bowling Green and Toledo) on 10-12 November 2026, produced by the Enterprise Technology Association.
Great Lakes AI Week 2026 runs 10-12 November 2026 across north-west Ohio, produced by the Enterprise Technology Association as part of its regional "AI Week" series. Day one opens with the AI Leadership Summit at Bowling Green State University's Student Union; day two moves to AI Ready Ohio workshops and community meetups at Loft 419; day three closes with the AI for Business Summit at the University of Toledo Student Union, giving the Toledo corridor a dedicated AI event for the first time.
The framing is squarely on implementation rather than hype: the Great Lakes region built much of the country's manufacturing, mobility, healthcare and logistics base, and the programme centres on integrating AI into those real operations — factory floors, supply chains, hospital systems and enterprise workflows. Keynotes, firesides, workshops and curated networking target operators, executives, developers and founders across the regional AI ecosystem, with workshop credit toward AI certificates under the AI Ready Ohio initiative.
