AMD Announces Advancing AI 2026 Trade Agreement for San Francisco
AMD announced a trade agreement: its flagship global AI event, Advancing AI 2026, will take place on July 23, 2026, at the San Francisco Moscone Center. The event will be held in person and livestreamed on the AMD YouTube channel, giving AI ecosystem partners, customers, and developers the same access on the same day.
Dr. Lisa Su, AMD chair and chief executive officer, will join AMD leaders at the event. AMD said Advancing AI 2026 will provide “blueprints for building, deploying and scaling AI powered by AMD,” which positions the gathering as a working session for people building on AMD’s AI stack rather than a general product showcase.
San Francisco Moscone Center
The announcement on April 28, 2026 set the date and place for the company’s next major AI gathering. July 23, 2026 is the day AMD has chosen for the in-person program at the San Francisco Moscone Center, with the livestream running on the AMD YouTube channel for people who cannot attend in San Francisco.
AMD described Advancing AI 2026 as its flagship global AI event and tied it to its AI open ecosystem. That gives the event a broader audience than a product launch alone: AI ecosystem partners, customers, and developers are expected to participate, and the company said the format will let them follow the same announcements whether they are in the room or watching remotely.
Dr. Lisa Su Joins AMD Leaders
Dr. Lisa Su is the named executive attached to the event, and AMD said AMD leaders will join her. The company did not frame the gathering as a narrow executive briefing; it linked the event to practical guidance for building, deploying, and scaling AI powered by AMD.
For readers who follow AMD for strategy rather than venue details, the key change is simple: the company has now fixed the date, the place, and the viewing path. Those planning to attend in person can target San Francisco, while those outside California can rely on the livestream on the AMD YouTube channel.
AMD’s AI Ecosystem
AMD said the event is aimed at the AI open ecosystem and said its technology powers billions of experiences across cloud and AI infrastructure, embedded systems, AI PCs, and gaming. That scope helps explain why the company is packaging the event as a global gathering instead of a one-off product announcement.
The practical next step is the event itself on July 23, 2026, when AMD leaders and Dr. Lisa Su are scheduled to appear at the San Francisco Moscone Center and the livestream will run on the AMD YouTube channel for the wider audience the company wants to reach.
