01 Purple at Ai4 2027
Five hundred AI vendors, one aisle each: Ai4 2027 booths in Las Vegas
Ai4's 2026 sponsor list ran from AWS and Google Cloud down to first-time startups, so a booth on this floor has to say its use case before a buyer reaches the next one. The Venetian keeps rigging, power and internet in-house, and every crate enters off Koval Lane.

- Startup expo + demo stage
- 1,100+ speakers in 2026
What makes Ai4 different, and how we build for it
Ai4 has run since 2018 and bills itself as America's largest AI conference.Its 2026 sponsor and exhibitor list ran through Diamond names such as AWS, Cisco, Google Cloud and PayPal, down through Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze to a long Exhibitor tier of young companies, plus a separate startup expo. Ai4 says the room splits 50:50 between business people and technology and data staff, and 56% hold director titles or above. The Agentic Live Demo Stage sits inside the Exhibit Hall and sends visitors on to booths for hands-on demos, and an Enterprise AI Buyer Pass is free only to buyers who commit to six or more vendor meetings onsite.
A use case named for their industry, a cost and payback figure they can repeat to a CFO, and a seat for the meeting they booked through the Ai4 app.
A live system they can query, the architecture on a second screen, and an engineer at the counter who can talk about evaluation, observability and model risk.
A fast scan of the startup expo, a crisp line on traction, and space to keep talking after the invite-only founder and VC event.
Your team in Las Vegas
How Purple runs Ai4 2027 at The Venetian
Our Las Vegas shop, about fifteen minutes from the resort, builds and prints the booth, and crates travel through the Ai4 kit's advance warehouse to the Koval Lane docks. A Purple project manager directs Teamster freight crews and IATSE riggers on the floor, then everything rides back to our shop for storage after the August 5 close.
Inside Ai4 2027
Ai4 rules that shape your booth
Ai4 does not admit anyone under 21 and refunds underage registrants. We check your booth staff and demo presenters against that rule before badges are ordered.
Enterprise AI Buyer Pass holders must take six or more vendor meetings onsite and pick providers once Ai4 sends instructions in June. We build a quiet two-seat meeting spot so those appointments run on time.
Ai4 allows refunds and ticket transfers in writing up to 60 days before the event starts, which puts the 2027 cutoff in early June. We confirm your staff list with you before then.
At The Venetian, rigging, electrical, internet, cleaning and catering belong to the resort, and EAC certificates must name it. We file the certificate and order those services early, before on-site rates apply.
Programs worth planning for
A dedicated startup expo and a startup stage with 50+ talks. The reduced AI Startup Pass is for AI-first companies under five years old with under $5M raised, after an approved application.
A stage in the Exhibit Hall where innovators and exhibitors show agentic AI live, then send visitors on to booths for hands-on demos.
A free pass for qualifying enterprise buyers who commit to six or more onsite vendor meetings and one special event; buyers pick providers to meet when Ai4 sends instructions in June.
Peer discussion groups for early arrivals, starting Monday, August 2 at 1 p.m., ahead of the official kickoff reception at 5 p.m.
Ai4 is an independent AI expo with open sponsor tiers and a startup expo; choose it over HumanX when you want a large booth-style floor and industry-by-industry buyers rather than a smaller room of pre-booked executive meetings. Compare every software and cloud show we build for →

02 Booths & pricing for Ai4 2027
How much does it cost to exhibit at Ai4 2027?
Ai4 sells sponsor and exhibitor packages through its Become a Sponsor application, in tiers from Exhibitor to Diamond, with no public rate card; startups show in a dedicated startup expo. For a first Ai4 we recommend a 10×20 with two demo screens; Platinum and Diamond sponsors usually justify an island with a meeting room.
Two demo screens on a counter, a back wall that names the industry and use case, and a standing table for the meeting booked in the app.

The booth we would build for Ai4 2027
The demo-stage hand-off booth with a buyer room
Ai4's Agentic Live Demo Stage sits inside the Exhibit Hall and sends its audience on to booths, and Enterprise AI Buyer Pass holders must take six or more vendor meetings onsite. So the booth catches the stage crowd with a hands-on version of the demo and keeps a closed room for the buyers who chose to meet you.
Hands-on bar
Four touch stations where a visitor coming off the Agentic Live Demo Stage tries the agent with their own prompt.
Industry wall
Panels naming the industries you serve, because half of Ai4's audience is business staff looking for their own sector.
Buyer room
A closed room with two to four seats for Enterprise AI Buyer Pass meetings, on the schedule buyers set in June.
Happy-hour counter
A counter that turns into a standing bar for the daily exhibit floor happy hour, served by The Venetian's own catering.
The demo
Hand the visitor the controls: they set a goal, the agent works across two or three business systems on screen, and a person approves the last step. Under three minutes for a business visitor, with the logs open for the technical one.
The meetings
Enterprise AI Buyer Pass holders pick the providers they want to meet after Ai4 sends instructions in June, and must hold six or more onsite meetings to keep the free pass. A room sized for those meetings, with the day's schedule on a tablet at the door, keeps them out of the aisle.
Agents that do the work, with a person in charge.
Your team walks into a lit, stocked Ai4 booth. You just show up.

Ai4 booths that turn demo-stage crowds into meetings
Case study · Amazon
Amazon at ESSENCE Festival of Culture, New Orleans
Not an AI conference, but the same brief: Amazon's ESSENCE build turned voice and streaming products into something people tried in person, which is what an Ai4 booth must do with a model.
Read the Amazon case study All case studies →“From start to finish, their team was professional, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. They designed and built a beautiful trade show exhibit that exceeded my expectations and helped our company stand out. We received many compliments on our booth.”

04 Designing for AI software, platform, data, infrastructure and services companies at Ai4
Designing an Ai4 booth for The Venetian Exhibit Hall
1Industry first, model second
Ai4 runs industry tracks from banks to aerospace to retail, and buyers walk the hall looking for their own industry. We lead the back wall with the industry and the result, keep the model and stack on a side panel, and change the header panel for each vertical you target.
2Ride the Agentic Live Demo Stage
Ai4 sends stage audiences on to booths for hands-on follow-up. If you demo on the stage, we repeat that exact demo at the booth on a large screen with a one-touch reset, so a visitor who saw it at noon can drive it themselves by twelve-thirty.
3Plan for the buyer meetings
Enterprise AI Buyer Pass holders must take six or more vendor meetings onsite, and thousands of meetings are booked through the Ai4 app each year. We build a two-seat meeting spot with a screen and a host stand, so a booked meeting never collides with walk-up demos.
4Built for the after-hours floor
Ai4 runs a daily happy hour on the exhibit floor with a signature cocktail each evening. Booth lighting that still reads at 5 p.m., a counter that works as a bar-height table and a clear path to the demo keep the conversation going after sessions end.
Concept rendering
Every Ai4 proposal includes a rendering like this
The 3D view shows layout, graphics, lighting and product positions before we cut a panel, and we revise it until the Ai4 booth is right. This one is a Purple concept for Flashnet.

Where you could be at Ai4 2027
Ai4 names The Venetian and, in its FAQ, Hall G on the first floor for special meals. Here is how the Venetian Expo works for an AI booth, from Purple's venue guide.
Level 1 halls, including Hall G
The ground-level expo halls take islands, hanging signs and heavy demo hardware; Ai4 points attendees to Hall G on the first floor for special meals.
Our advice A booth on Level 1 can carry a rigged sign and large LED; we confirm the clear height in the hall Ai4 assigns before drawing it.
Level 2 halls and freight elevators
Upstairs space is reached by freight elevator, so anything larger than the car must be broken down.
Our advice For an upstairs booth we build crates to the elevator dimensions in the Ai4 kit, so nothing waits at the door.
Koval Lane docks
Every truck enters through the docks behind the resort, and trucks sent direct are held in an off-site yard until their dock slot comes up.
Our advice Shipping to the advance warehouse puts your crates on the booth space before your project manager arrives.
05 The Venetian Resort and Venetian Expo · Las Vegas
Ai4 2027 at The Venetian: docks, elevators and exclusive services
Ai4 takes over The Venetian, where the expo halls belong to a private resort that keeps rigging, electrical, internet, cleaning and catering as exclusive services. Teamsters Local 631 move freight and run forklifts, and IATSE Local 720 own rigging and AV. Every load comes through the Koval Lane docks, direct trucks queue in an off-site marshaling yard for a dock time, and upstairs booths ride freight elevators, so crate size follows the elevator dimensions in the Ai4 kit. We file EAC certificates naming the resort, order hanging-sign rigging and wired lines early, and route crates through the advance warehouse. A panel damaged in transit is reprinted overnight at our Las Vegas shop, about fifteen minutes from the resort.
What Purple handles
- Ai4 exhibitor kit, EAC certificates naming the resort and show contractor orders
- Venetian rigging, electrical and wired internet ordered before the early rates end
- Crates sized to the freight elevators for upstairs booths
- Demo screens and meeting spots tested with your live product
- Reprints and spare parts from our Las Vegas shop, fifteen minutes away

Ai4 2027 exhibitor tips: age rule, hotel block and buyer meetings
Everyone on the booth must be 21 or older: Ai4 admits no one under 21, so check presenters and temporary staff before badges are ordered. source
Refunds and ticket transfers close 60 days before the event, which lands in early June 2027, so settle staff names before then. source
Ai4's Venetian block is $159 a night plus a $45 resort fee through Connections Housing, and the booking link goes out in early December. source
Badge pickup opens at 2 p.m. on Sunday, August 1, so the booth team can collect badges the day before the leadership summits begin. source
Buyers choose which vendors they meet once Ai4 sends instructions in June, so finish your sponsor listing and company profile before then. source
Who you meet on the floor
Half of Ai4's audience, per Ai4; they look for AI use cases inside their own industry.
The other half; they test the hands-on demos after watching the Agentic Live Demo Stage.
Buyer Pass holders attend free and commit to six or more vendor meetings onsite.
Ai4 runs a startup expo, a startup stage with 50+ talks and an invite-only event for founders and VCs.

Ai4 exhibitor questions
Ai4 2027 exhibitor and sponsor FAQ
When is Ai4 2027?
Ai4 2027 runs August 2–5, 2027 in Las Vegas. Leadership summits begin Monday, August 2 at 1 p.m., the official kickoff reception is that evening at 5 p.m., and the conference wraps on August 5 with the afterparty at TAO.
Where is Ai4 2027 held?
At The Venetian on the Las Vegas Strip, 201 Sands Avenue. Ai4's room block is at The Venetian, and its 2026 FAQ placed special meal pickup in Hall G on the first floor of the expo.
How do we exhibit or sponsor at Ai4?
Through Ai4's Become a Sponsor form; its team replies with packages. The 2026 list ran from Diamond through Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze to Exhibitor and Partner tiers, and the 2027 sponsor list has not been published, so early applicants get first choice of space.
How much does a booth at Ai4 cost?
Ai4 quotes its sponsor and exhibitor packages privately, with no public rate card. Purple's part is the build: a 10×20 rental runs $7,500 to $15,000 and a custom 20×20 island $50,000 to $120,000, and Venetian rigging, demo screens and a closed meeting room move that number most.
Who exhibits at Ai4?
AI platform, data, cloud, security and services companies, from hyperscalers to seed-stage startups. Ai4's 2026 list included AWS, Cisco, Dataiku, Google Cloud, MongoDB, Okta, Salesforce, ElevenLabs, Datadog and Stack Overflow, plus a separate startup expo.
How many people attend Ai4?
Not published for 2026 on Ai4's 2027 pages. Ai4 says attendees came from 90 countries in 2026, that 400+ Fortune 500 companies have attended an Ai4 event, and that its networking app connects 20,000+ AI leaders.
Is there a startup area at Ai4?
Yes: a dedicated startup expo, a startup stage with 50+ talks and an invite-only event for founders and VCs. The reduced AI Startup Pass is for companies under five years old that have raised under $5M and build AI as their core product, after an approved application.
What is the Ai4 Enterprise AI Buyer Pass?
It is a free pass for qualifying enterprise buyers who agree to six or more vendor meetings onsite and one special event. Buyers choose the solution providers they want to meet once Ai4 sends instructions in June; a buyer who skips that step loses the pass.
How much is an Ai4 2027 pass for booth staff?
$1,595 for the Standard Pass at the current rate, against a $3,395 full price, and $2,795 for VIP against $4,995. Every pass type includes the exhibit hall, and group discounts start at three people, which helps if staff outside your package need badges.
Can anyone under 21 attend Ai4?
No. Ai4 admits attendees aged 21 and over only and refunds registrants under 21 with proof of age, so booth staff and demo presenters must be 21 or older.
Where should booth staff stay for Ai4?
At The Venetian, in Ai4's discounted block: $159 a night plus a $45 resort fee and taxes, in all-suite rooms of about 700 square feet. Connections Housing is Ai4's official booking partner, and the booking link goes out in early December.
Can you install at The Venetian for Ai4?
Yes, regularly. Your Purple project manager files the EAC certificate naming the resort, schedules Teamsters and IATSE labor, orders the venue's rigging and power, and sizes crates to the freight elevators if your booth sits upstairs.
Can we reuse our Ai4 booth at other shows?
A modular Ai4 booth stores at our Las Vegas shop and can return for HumanX at Mandalay Bay in March, or travel to The AI Summit New York and AI & Big Data Expo North America, with headers changed for each audience.
What is the difference between Ai4 and HumanX?
Size of floor and how meetings happen. Ai4 is a four-day August conference at The Venetian with a large tiered sponsor floor and a startup expo; HumanX meets at Mandalay Bay in March around SolutionBridge, its hosted program of pre-booked executive meetings.
Before you sign for Ai4
Ask any Ai4 exhibit builder these five questions:
- Will you file the EAC certificate naming The Venetian and order its exclusive rigging, power and internet before on-site rates apply?
- Is our Ai4 space upstairs, and will your crates fit The Venetian's freight elevators?
- How many Teamster and IATSE hours does a Venetian install of our size usually need?
- Can you fit a closed room for Buyer Pass meetings inside our package footprint?
- Will every staffer and demo presenter you supply be 21 or older, as Ai4 requires?
What Ai4 exhibitors ask us
Ai4 sponsors run from AWS to seed startups. Where do we fit? By tier and goal. A first Ai4 often starts with an Exhibitor or Bronze package and a rental 10×20 with two screens; Platinum and Diamond packages justify an island with a closed meeting room.
The Venetian has a lot of rules. What trips up first-timers? Freight. Every load comes through the Koval Lane docks, direct trucks wait in an off-site marshaling yard for a dock time, and upstairs booths ride freight elevators, so crate size follows the elevator dimensions in the Ai4 kit.
Buyers book their meetings in advance. Why does the booth matter? Because buyers pick who they meet. A hands-on demo near the Agentic Live Demo Stage brings walk-ups who become next year's booked meetings, and the booth room is where this year's meetings happen.
