Countdown to GTC Washington, DC: What to Watch Next Week ????

Next week, Washington, D.C., becomes the center of gravity for artificial intelligence. NVIDIA GTC Washington, D.C., lands at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center Oct. 27-29 — and for those who care about where computing is headed, this is the moment to pay attention.

The headline act: NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang’s keynote address on Tuesday, Oct. 28, at 12 p.m. ET. Expect more than product news — expect a roadmap for how AI will reshape industries, infrastructure and the public sector.

Before that, the pregame show kicks off at 8:30 a.m. ET with Brad Gerstner, Patrick Moorhead and Kristina Partsinevelos offering sharp takes on what’s coming.

But GTC offers more than a keynote. It provides full immersion: 70+ sessions, hands-on workshops and demos covering everything from agentic AI and robotics to quantum computing and AI-native telecom networks. It’s where developers meet decision-makers, and ideas turn into action. Exhibits-only passes are still available.
