NextStar Venture Partners Co-Presents SV Access Week: AI in the Global Startup Ecosystem
REGISTER NOW!
NextStar Venture Partners is proud to co-present SV Access Week: AI in the Global Startup Ecosystem, alongside SV Access / PitchGlobal, on October 14, 2026, from 1:30 to 6:30 PM at One Embarcadero Center, San Francisco. The afternoon is sponsored by Norton Rose Fulbright.
The program centers on a question that grows more pressing as AI adoption accelerates worldwide: the cross-border issues companies face when deploying AI, and how founders can pitch effectively into global corporate venture. For a firm whose thesis is inherently global, backing AI for critical industries across markets and borders, it is exactly the kind of conversation NextStar is glad to help convene.
Why This Conversation Matters Now
Innovation does not stop at national borders, and neither do the challenges of deploying AI responsibly across them.
Companies building AI for real-world industries increasingly find that what works in one market must be rethought for another, from regulation and data practices to the expectations of corporate partners and customers. SV Access Week brings those realities into focus, pairing a discussion of the obstacles with a practical look at how founders can connect with global corporate venture programs.
Startups Pitch
The afternoon features startups pitching to a lineup that spans global corporate venture and institutional investors, including Mitsubishi Electric, Sony, Honda, TDK, BGV, USVP, and more. The result is a rare room in which founders building across borders meet the corporate and venture partners positioned to help them scale internationally.
