Modular's annual developer conference returns to San Francisco on August 18th. One day of launches, live demos, and the people building and making big bets on the AI stack.
On August 18th, the Modular community gathers in San Francisco for ModCon 2026: Compute Unlocked. ModCon is an intimate one-day conference built around a single idea: solving the hardware scarcity problem.
Registration opens today, Wednesday June 17th. Early-bird pricing is $299 through July 1st, then $450. We’re opening up just 300 spots for this exclusive event.
Why "Compute Unlocked" #
For years, the AI stack has been locked to specific hardware and switching meant rewriting everything you'd already shipped. At ModCon 2026, we’ll enable hardware flexibility and showcase what changes when the same model, code, and container run across NVIDIA, AMD, and new hardwares to be announced, with the performance and cost numbers to back it up. Be the first to learn about exclusive new launches across Modular’s software stack including Mojo, MAX, and Modular Cloud. Join us and an incredible lineup of speakers at ModCon 2026.
