Marc Benioff Headlines The Six Five Summit: AI Unleashed 2026

Join the CEOs and technology leaders shaping enterprise AI for three days of candid conversations spanning platforms, infrastructure, agents, silicon, edge intelligence, and sovereign compute.

AI has moved beyond the demo phase. Enterprises are deploying models, operationalizing agents, rethinking infrastructure, and making consequential decisions about where—and how—to invest.

From August 25–27, The Six Five Summit: AI Unleashed 2026 will bring the leaders making those decisions directly to you.

Headlined by Marc Benioff, Chair and CEO of Salesforce, this free, three-day virtual event features CEOs and senior executives from across the enterprise AI stack. They’ll join Six Five analysts for direct conversations about what is working in production, where adoption is stalling, and what the next phase of the AI buildout will mean for technology leaders, practitioners, and buyers.

The CEO Voices Defining Enterprise AI

Marc Benioff will open the Summit with Six Five Media co-founders Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman for a wide-ranging conversation about the state of the AI buildout, the move from experimentation to agents in production, and how digital labor could reshape the software business.

He will be joined across the three-day program by some of the most consequential CEOs in enterprise technology:

  • Sridhar Ramaswamy, CEO of Snowflake, will explore why enterprise data is becoming a competitive moat, what it takes to build an agentic enterprise, and how organizations can balance AI ambition with real-world token economics.
  • Matt Murphy, Chairman and CEO of Marvell, will discuss why connectivity is emerging as one of AI’s biggest constraints, the transition from copper to optical technologies, and the custom silicon strategies powering the hyperscale buildout.
  • Gary Dickerson, President and CEO of Applied Materials, will examine the semiconductor demand supercycle, innovation across logic, memory, and advanced packaging, and the co-innovation needed to accelerate the AI roadmap.

The full program also includes CEOs and senior leaders from Google Cloud, AWS, Oracle, Oracle NetSuite, Dell Technologies, HP, IBM, Intel, Micron, Samsung Semiconductor, Seagate, Solidigm, Lenovo, Lattice Semiconductor, Broadcom, Qualcomm, Cohesity, Commvault, Coherent, Equinix, MongoDB, Qualtrics, Veeam, T-Mobile for Business, and more.

Three Days Across the Enterprise AI Stack

AI Unleashed 2026 is built to give attendees a connected view of the technologies, economics, and operating models shaping enterprise AI.

Day 1: The AI Platform Era

Tuesday, August 25

Day 1 begins with Marc Benioff’s opening keynote interview, followed by Snowflake CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy as the day opener.

Sessions will explore the platforms, data foundations, models, and infrastructure required to move AI into production at enterprise scale.

Featured tracks include:

  • AI Infrastructure
  • Data and Observability
  • AI Ops, Models, and Platforms

The day will also feature executive spotlights from Dell Technologies, Coherent, Intel, Oracle, NVIDIA, Solidigm, Lenovo, Google Cloud, Seagate, Equinix, MongoDB, and Veeam.

Day 2: Infrastructure and the Agentic Enterprise

Wednesday, August 26

Marvell Chairman and CEO Matt Murphy opens Day 2 with a look at the connectivity, compute, and custom silicon strategies behind the expanding AI ecosystem.

The conversation then moves from infrastructure to implementation: intelligent networks, AI-enabled devices, enterprise agents, and the sustainability challenges created by growing compute demand.

Featured tracks include:

  • Connected Intelligent Edge and Networks
  • AI Device Intelligence
  • Enterprise AI Software and Agents
  • Sustainability

Executive spotlights will feature leaders from AWS, Qualtrics, Oracle NetSuite, Coherent, HP, Equinix, Lenovo, Intel, and T-Mobile for Business.

Day 3: Silicon, Sovereignty, and the Inference Economy

Thursday, August 27

Applied Materials President and CEO Gary Dickerson opens the final day with a conversation about the semiconductor innovations powering the next generation of AI.

Day 3 will examine the security, silicon, storage, and sovereign infrastructure required as AI workloads scale and inference becomes a larger part of enterprise computing.

Featured tracks include:

  • Cybersecurity
  • Semiconductors

The day includes spotlights from Applied Materials, Marvell, Micron, Samsung Semiconductor, Intel, Lattice Semiconductor, Tanium, Commvault, Cohesity, Broadcom, and Infinidat.

The Questions Enterprise Leaders Need Answered

AI Unleashed is designed around the questions enterprise buyers, builders, and boards are asking right now:

  • Where is production AI delivering measurable value—and where is it still falling short?
  • How will the agentic enterprise change workflows, software seats, and business models?
  • Who stands to win the inference economy as foundational models become increasingly commoditized?
  • How will sovereign compute, edge intelligence, advanced packaging, and custom silicon reshape the technology stack?
  • What do the capital requirements and unit economics behind the AI buildout actually look like?

Every session pairs an operator with an analyst who covers the market closely. The result is a conversation that moves beyond prepared talking points and into the technical, financial, and strategic realities influencing enterprise decisions.

As Patrick Moorhead explains, the Summit brings together the leaders building “the platforms, the silicon, the cloud, and the agents that customers actually run.”

Daniel Newman adds that the event is built for people who need “signal, not spin”—with free access to the executives making some of the industry’s most important calls.

More Than a Virtual Keynote

Community hubs will remain open throughout all three days, giving attendees opportunities to participate in live discussions, join drop-in conversations, network with peers, and engage with industry analysts.

Whether you are evaluating AI platforms, building an enterprise data strategy, planning infrastructure investments, deploying agents, or assessing the next generation of silicon, the Summit offers a direct view into how the market is developing.

That perspective is reaching a rapidly growing audience. Six Five Media’s YouTube channel has grown 47% since the beginning of the year, while its editorial and video franchises now generate more than 10 million monthly impressions and 2 million monthly video views.

Together, Six Five Media, The Futurum Group, and Moor Insights & Strategy reach more than 700,000 engaged subscribers. Eighty percent of that audience consists of decision-makers, including 19% at the C-level and 61% at the executive or manager level.

Get Your Front-Row Seat—Free

The next era of enterprise AI is being shaped now: in boardrooms, data centers, semiconductor fabs, software platforms, and production environments around the world.

The Six Five Summit: AI Unleashed 2026 brings those conversations together in one place.

Join us virtually from August 25–27, 2026, and hear directly from the executives building the platforms, infrastructure, silicon, and agents defining what comes next.
