Fully Connected 2026: Superintelligence Happens When Pioneers Connect

What we heard, what we announced, and what comes next.
Fully Connected 2026: Superintelligence Happens When Pioneers Connect

CoreWeave held its first Fully Connected conference this week in San Francisco, convening more than 5,000 AI pioneers from around the globe to explore the immense opportunity of AI, and what it looks like to build and run it in production.

The name of our event is worth taking literally. This technology draws from everything humanity has learned, across disciplines and languages, and finds the connections no single person could see on their own. Discovery still demands experiments and evidence, but it is no longer constrained by what one mind—or one lifetime—could ever possibly achieve alone. We provide pioneers the AI Cloud to match their ambition.

Unprecedented opportunities for human discovery

Of course, progress rarely arrives as one sweeping transformation. It comes from finding your place and building from there. Over the last several days we heard from pioneering customers like Caterpillar, Capital One, and Cognition—three very different companies putting AI to work in very different ways. What they have in common is this: AI must prove itself on the job, every day, at a scale that keeps growing. And that requires a purpose-built AI Cloud that delivers the pace, performance, and partnership, acting as a force multiplier to accelerate breakthroughs with AI.

Meeting that test is harder than it sounds. The systems built for earlier eras of computing were never designed for it, and the old ways of working have become a bottleneck to progress. With all of its exponential demands and possibilities, the AI era calls for building from first principles. Our pioneering customers need a new foundation, engineered from the ground up, for a new age of discovery and innovation.

CoreWeave, the Essential Cloud for AI

Those who follow our industry closely left Fully Connected seeing the clearest sign yet that CoreWeave is a full AI platform of technology and teams that delivers unparalleled and outsized impact. As Brian shared earlier this week, we announced new capabilities on our platform underscoring that work and representing our relentless pursuit of innovation:

  • We launched CoreWeave Forge, one place to build, run, and improve AI models and agents. We know that what a team learns from real AI use feeds the next version, making it better. Chen Goldberg and Corey Sanders expertly shared the steps of the AI loop live on stage, demonstrating the power of Forge.
  • We announced the availability of NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72, with Cognition being the first customer anywhere running production workloads on NVIDIA's newest system. It was up and running within days, with more token throughput than on the previous generation.
  • We now offer NVIDIA Vera CPU, the first CPU built for AI agents. These run the work around every step, from sandboxes to tool calls. One rack supports more than 11,000 concurrent environments, and in our testing, sandboxes start more than three times faster than on an x86 CPU.
  • We also announced our work with Ennoble Care, a home-based care provider that serves about 50,000 patients a year. Ennoble Care selected CoreWeave to run its clinical AI. Dedicated capacity, security built in from the silicon up, and engineers who answer the phone help bring AI into everyday care.
  • Finally, we also unveiled the CoreWeave Partner Network, which brings into one spot proven integrations from partners like CrowdStrike, VAST Data, ClickHouse, and Reflection. Each has been tested on our infrastructure under production load, so customers can scale up without rebuilding what already works.

Built for pioneers, by pioneers

What's clear is that AI is already transforming how enterprises across industries think, work, and innovate. And innovation isn't only coming from the inventors in labs building AI models for the world. It's also coming from changemakers inside enterprises using AI to push against the status quo and entrepreneurs scaling AI-native businesses.

That is the future we believe in, and it is why we built CoreWeave the way we did. Our job is to give every pioneer the foundation, the technology, and direct access to deep expertise so they can act smarter, move faster, and reach further.

Thank you to everyone who joined us. We came to learn, connect, and be inspired. I hope you left more energized than ever for the work ahead.
