Tech for Impact Summit 2026 is built for people who want the serious version of “tech x impact.” It brings together frontier technology and systemic social change, focusing on how breakthroughs turn into real infrastructure, policy and capital flows for a more just, sustainable and connected future.

Expect a cross-sector speaker mix that leans practical and global, with investors and founders in the room alongside policymakers, corporate innovation leaders and researchers.

Speakers featured on the summit site span deep tech, governance and investment. Examples include Audrey Tang (digital governance and democracy), Charles Hoskinson (blockchain founder), Kathy Matsui (investment), Ken Shibusawa (impact capital), Takuya Hirai (public policy), Rika Nakazawa (corporate innovation), Michael Levin (research), plus leaders from impact valuation, finance and quantum computing.
