Investors seeking direct exposure to the companies building and applying artificial intelligence will have a rare opportunity to hear from management teams and ask questions when the AI & Tech Virtual Investor Conference convenes online on Thursday, October 1, 2026. Hosted by Virtual Investor Conferences (VIC), an OTC Markets Group property, and marketed by B2i Digital, Inc., the event features seven companies spanning semiconductors, data centers, battery materials, AI-driven fintech, retail technology, and online marketplaces. Each will present live for 30 minutes followed by audience Q&A, with replays available on B2i Digital and OTC Markets YouTube channels.
The significance lies in access. As B2i Digital CEO David Shapiro noted, everyone has an opinion on AI, but fewer have heard directly from the companies behind the chips, data centers, power, and battery materials that make it run. The conference allows any registered investor to request a virtual meeting with presenting management teams, a departure from the usual institutional-only access. Shapiro encouraged investors to follow up presentations with their own meetings, adding that participating management teams genuinely want to talk to their investors and not just institutional.
The presenting companies as of September 27, 2026, are Perpetuals.com Ltd. (9:30 AM ET), Articore Group Ltd. (10:00 AM ET), Infineon Technologies AG (10:30 AM ET), First Phosphate Corp. (11:00 AM ET), Blockmate Ventures Inc. (11:30 AM ET), Carrier Connect Data Solutions Inc. (1:00 PM ET), and INEO Tech Corp. (1:30 PM ET). Infineon makes semiconductors for power systems and the Internet of Things, targeting decarbonization and digitalization. Carrier Connect is rolling up Tier II and Tier III data centers serving AI companies and enterprises in Vancouver, Ottawa, and Perth. Blockmate Ventures is a venture builder focused on AI, energy, and digital infrastructure. First Phosphate is building a mine-to-market supply chain for lithium iron phosphate batteries in North America, serving energy storage, data centers, robotics, mobility, and national security. Perpetuals.com pairs proprietary AI with regulated market infrastructure for consumer trading and white-label services. INEO Tech builds connected entrance systems for retailers, combining electronic article surveillance, digital displays, edge processing, and cloud software for loss prevention, retail media, and analytics. Articore Group owns online marketplaces Redbubble, TeePublic, and Frankly Wearing, plus the creator platform Dashery.
The conference matters because it compresses the AI investment landscape into a single day of live, unfiltered presentations and Q&A, giving retail and institutional investors alike a chance to evaluate management teams across the AI supply chain.
