[About the Conference]

[The Story Behind Prompt Victoria]

[Vancouver Island's largest AI conference, built by Victoria's tech and data community for professionals navigating the age of AI.]

[Our Story]

[From a Sold-Out First Year to a Regional Fixture]

[Prompt Victoria launched in 2025 as Vancouver Island's first conference focused on practical AI for business and professionals.]

[The inaugural event sold out at 350 attendees, featured 28 speakers across two tracks, and finished with an NPS of 71 — among the highest recorded for a first-year conference.]

[Presented by VIATEC and co-organized with the Victoria Data Society, PlusROI Online Marketing, and AI4Enterprise, the conference grew out of a simple observation: Victoria has real AI expertise, but professionals across the Island needed a neutral space to cut through the hype and share what's actually working.]

[For 2026 we return on November 5 at the Victoria Conference Centre with an expanded program — three tracks, more speakers, and the same focus: practical learning, honest conversation, and real connections.]

[Partners]
