Human+Tech Week 2027
The future gets built here.
Programming & Curation
Five days. Four summits. One continuous argument about human flourishing in the AI era.
Curation
Human+Tech Week 2027 is shaped through a Master Curator, Summit Curators and Co-Chairs, Guest Curators, and approved partner-hosted programming — read together as one week, not five stand-alone days.
The next five years decide whether AI advances human flourishing.
Human+Tech Week is the convening for the future of humanity in the AI era. Each day opens one of the four questions the decade will answer — how we work, how we stay healthy, how our cities hold us, and where capital moves — and reads them together rather than in isolation. The intellectual story is the point of the week; every session, speaker, and partner event is developed against it.
The questions the 2027 week is exploring: What does agency look like when the tools of work think back? Whose healthspan expands and whose does not? Which cities remain interfaces for human life? And what kind of capital funds a future worth arriving at?
The Master Curator holds the story of the week and the intellectual arc from Monday to Friday. Every summit, session, and partner event is read against a single thesis.
Each summit is led by a Summit Curator and Co-Chairs who shape its thesis, program arc, speaker pool, and the sessions that carry the argument through the day.
A distributed circle of Guest Curators brings ideas, people, and event concepts into the weekly curation conversation. Contributions are considered together, not in isolation.
Approved partner events extend the week into the city. They are read alongside HTW programming so the whole week reads as one continuous argument.
What curators bring in
Five days. One continuous argument.
The week opens on Monday with the Grand Opening and closes on Friday with capital. In between, each summit takes one of the questions the week is asking and carries it from morning to evening — with threads deliberately drawn across days.
The intellectual overture. A single room sets the questions the week will answer across work, health, cities, and capital.
Expanding human capability in the AI era. Performance, organizational design, and workforce transformation.
Longevity, mental health, prevention, and the systems that deliver care. What it means to live longer, better.
Civic systems, infrastructure, and governance for the places where flourishing actually happens.
The investors, allocators, and sovereign capital funding what comes next — from pilots to deployment.
HTW shapes the story. Partners extend it across the city.
Grand Opening plus four summits, developed by the Master Curator and Summit Curators through a shared editorial workflow.

Four qualities the week is built for.
Curation is the difference between a conference schedule and a week that reads. These are the qualities the programming team holds themselves to.
One coherent story
The five days read as a single argument about human flourishing in the AI era.
Editorial care
Each session is developed against a thesis, not booked to fill a slot.
Cross-summit lines
Threads carry between work, health, cities, and capital instead of ending at the door.
Programming across the city
Partner events extend the week beyond the main venue without fragmenting the story.
Three steps from thesis to program.
Explore the thesis
Start with the questions the week is asking across work, health, cities, and capital.
Contribute
Bring ideas, people, speakers, and event concepts into the weekly curation conversation.
Shape the week
Together the curatorial circle reads contributions, draws threads, and shapes the arc.
A circle, not a committee.
The next five years decide the trajectory of AI.
As AI moves from experimentation into deployment, the choices made now will shape how work, health, and cities evolve for a decade. The window to shape that trajectory is open, and it is narrow. Human+Tech Week exists to shape it toward human flourishing.
A community you can build a week on.
