DETAILS

Curbivore is pleased to invite you to the Urban Autonomy Summit, presented by Nexar, convening in San Francisco on January 28th, 2026.

The Bay Area is at an inflection point: autonomous vehicles are no longer a future debate-they're already navigating big-city streets. With the likes of Waymo, Tesla, Zoox, Wayve & more all operating in dense urban cores, SF & other megalopolises face urgent questions around safety, equity, & integration with existing urban transport systems. Now is the moment for a critical discussion to shape AV deployments.

3:25: Welcome Remarks

3:30: Responsibly Scaling AVs in America's Mega-Cities
