What is the HumanX conference?
HumanX is an AI conference for business leaders, run from humanx.co. The next US edition runs March 8 to 10, 2027, at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, and the organizer calls it its third annual US edition. A second event, HumanX Europe, runs September 20 to 22, 2027, at RAI Amsterdam.
The name causes confusion in search. Humanx.io is a design agency and humanx.global is an unrelated organization. This page covers the AI conference only.
What sets HumanX apart from a broad AI expo is who it puts in the room. The organizer says 60% of its audience is VP level or above, it gives enterprise buyers free passes if they agree to meet vendors, and its editorial team picks the speakers. The US site says there are “no paid speaking slots.”

The registration page says rates rise on December 13, 2026, and the US event page says December 14, so treat mid-December as the deadline for the current price. The US page also says passes can be transferred and that cancellations get a full credit until that date. Prices change often, so check the registration page before you buy.
Who gets in free as an Adopter?
The Adopters pass is HumanX’s hosted-buyer program, called SolutionBridge. Accepted buyers get eight pre-scheduled vendor meetings, and the registration page says travel stipends of $750 are available to qualified participants. For a company selling AI, those buyers are the reason to sponsor or exhibit. Apply early if you are a buyer, and ask the organizer how SolutionBridge meetings are allocated if you are a sponsor.
What happened at HumanX 2026?
HumanX moved from Las Vegas to San Francisco for its second edition, held in April 2026 at Moscone Center South, as the organizer announced in a March 2025 press release. The US event page reports, from confirmed 2026 registrations:
| Measure | HumanX 2026 (organizer’s figures) |
|---|---|
| Registered leaders | 6,815 |
| Companies | 3,642 |
| Countries | 76 |
| C-suite and VP | 60% |
| From companies with 1,000+ employees | 28% |
| Founders and investors | 14% |
These are registration counts the organizer publishes to sell passes and sponsorships, not audited attendance. Companies the page lists among 2026 registrants include AWS, Anthropic, Databricks, Google Cloud, Microsoft, NVIDIA, OpenAI and Perplexity. The ten most watched 2026 sessions are free to replay on humanx.co.

HumanX was founded by Stefan Weitz, its CEO and an 18-year Microsoft veteran, and Jonathan Weiner, who founded Money20/20, HLTH, ViVE and Shoptalk. The company announced more than $6 million in funding in April 2024, led by Primary Venture Partners with Foundation Capital, FPV Ventures and Andreessen Horowitz.
Should B2B SaaS marketers go to HumanX?
It depends on what you sell and who you need to meet.
- Go if you sell AI to large companies. The hosted-buyer program and the VP-heavy audience make the expo and the meeting programs the main reason to attend.
- Go if you are a founder raising money. VentureConnect and the investor pass are built for that, and the startup pass is the cheapest way in.
- Go if AI search affects your pipeline. One session listed for 2027 covers LLM visibility and how it changes traffic and pipeline, aimed at CMOs and CROs. That is a rare marketing topic at an AI event.
- Think twice if you want marketing playbooks. HumanX is about running and buying AI. A marketing event such as Social Media Marketing World, three weeks later in Anaheim, will teach your team more per dollar.
HumanX or Ai4? Both are AI events in Las Vegas with free passes for enterprise buyers. HumanX is in March, smaller, and more senior by its own numbers, with editorially chosen speakers. Ai4 is in August, much larger, and broader across industries and job functions. For an AI event closer to enterprise IT, see The AI Summit New York. Our events list covers the marketing and SaaS conferences.
How to get a return on HumanX
- Decide by early December. The current price holds until mid-December 2026, and the VIP pass must be bought by February 26, 2027.
- Pick 30 to 50 target accounts. Check the companies HumanX lists among past registrants and sponsors, and look for their people on the speaker list.
- Book meetings before March. Invite target accounts to a meeting or a small dinner in the four weeks before the event. Three days in Las Vegas fill up fast.
- Use the matchmaking. If you sponsor, ask how SolutionBridge meetings are allocated. If you are a buyer, apply for the Adopters pass.
- Follow up within a day. Write each follow-up for the conversation you had, log it in the CRM, and measure meetings and opportunities over the next 90 days, not badge scans.
Our events service runs this for B2B companies: invites to the accounts you want to meet, booth graphics and one-pagers in your brand, and follow-up written for every scan that lands in your CRM. If AI assistants are where your buyers now research, our AI search and SEO service works on how your brand shows up in them, and our GEO guide explains the basics.
