PIT-UN SUMMIT
We’re headed to Los Angeles during L.A. Tech Week for the annual PIT-UN Summit. Join us on October 14, 2026 for the marquee event for public interest technologists from across academia, government, civil society, and industry.
PIT-UN Summit 2026 is not about chasing the next big thing.
The PIT-UN Summit is a multi-sector gathering brings together the builders, communities, and partners actively shaping public interest technology—through products and ideas tested by lived experience and strengthened through collaboration.
Across communities, classrooms, startups, and civic systems, people are already building the future of public interest technology—often without the visibility or validation that traditional tech spaces demand. Our Summit aims to change that.
Builders present products that work. Communities learn how to co-create around real needs. Investors and funders find alignment, not hype. Everyone experiences PIT in real-time. We’re not here to predict what’s next. We recognize what’s already in motion—and decide the future, together.
Hear from PIT Leaders
Last summer, public interest technology leaders from PIT-UN and beyond discussed the importance of growing the PIT ecosystem.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
While the in-person event is limited in capacity, anyone who practices, researches, supports, or is curious about PIT people, products and
pipelines can join us virtually on October 14. Attendees will experience
the public interest technology already here, already working, and primed
to redefine the tech ecosystem.
