The ARK Big Ideas Summit 2026 in St. Petersburg, FL brings together leading investors, technologists, founders, and ecosystem builders for a day exploring the future of disruptive innovation.

Hosted by spARK Labs by ARK Invest at the ARK Innovation Center, the Summit convenes voices from across ARK Invest’s five innovation platforms, including artificial intelligence, robotics, energy storage, multi-omics, and blockchain, while showcasing the work being built at spARK Labs.
