We have been organizing the premier annual visual technology summit since 2014 called the LDV Vision Summit with the main focus of showcasing brilliant people like YOU!

Our 2017 Annual LDV Vision Summit was an absolutely amazing event, thanks to all of you brilliant people.

"My second time attending the LDV Vision Summit was even better than the first. A great mix of accomplished technical people and energetic young entrepreneurs." **Dave Touretzky, Research Professor, Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University.**

Judy Robinett is known for her titanium Rolodex. She was a judge at our 2017 LDV Vision Summit startup competition. Evan Nisselson caught up with her a week before our event about her experience investing in startups.

Our next LDV Vision Summit will include over 80 international speakers with the purpose of exploring, understanding, and shaping the future of imaging and video in human communication. We will showcase the best startups and computer vision experts who compete in one of the following two competitions.
