Investors seeking direct exposure to the companies building and applying artificial intelligence will have a rare opportunity on Thursday, October 1, 2026, when B2i Digital, Inc. hosts the AI & Tech Virtual Investor Conference. The online event, a B2i Digital Featured Conference hosted by Virtual Investor Conferences, will feature live 30-minute presentations and audience Q&A from seven companies spanning semiconductors, data centers, battery materials, AI-driven fintech, retail technology, and online marketplaces. According to the announcement, the conference is designed to connect investors with management teams that are often overshadowed by the hype surrounding AI. "Everyone has an opinion on AI. Fewer have heard directly from the companies behind the chips, the data centers, the power and the battery materials that make it run, or the ones putting AI to work in a trading platform, a store or an online marketplace," said David Shapiro, Chief Executive Officer of B2i Digital, Inc. "On October 1 you get a live 30-minute presentation, then Q&A for what's really on your mind. You can follow that up with your own meeting, which I strongly encourage."
The presenting companies, as of September 27, 2026, include Infineon Technologies AG, a semiconductor maker focused on power systems and the Internet of Things; Carrier Connect Data Solutions Inc., which is rolling up Tier II and Tier III data centers in Vancouver, Ottawa, and Perth; Blockmate Ventures Inc., a venture builder in AI, energy, and digital infrastructure; First Phosphate Corp., building a mine-to-market supply chain for lithium iron phosphate batteries in North America; Perpetuals.com Ltd., a fintech firm pairing proprietary AI with regulated market infrastructure; INEO Tech Corp., which builds connected entrance systems for retailers; and Articore Group Ltd., owner of online marketplaces Redbubble, TeePublic, and Frankly Wearing. The presentations will run from 9:30 AM ET to 1:30 PM ET, with replays available on the B2i Digital and OTC Markets YouTube channels.
For investors, the event offers more than passive viewing. Any registered investor can request a virtual one-on-one meeting with the management team of a presenting company through the meeting link at https://app.axleaccess.com/public/events/8f859f16-4064-4e8c-9bac-a8c73063cd37?token=aac5b3cd-90f3-40d6-ae55-ee8f8f2ae37f. "Yes, the management teams who participate in the VIC genuinely want to talk to their investors and not just institutional. Don't miss this opportunity," Shapiro added. Registration is available at https://www.virtualinvestorconferences.com/wcc/eh/4814904/category/150634/october-1-ai-tech-virtual-investor-conference, and full event details and company profiles can be found at https://b2idigital.com/otc-market-oct-1st-ai-and-tech-virtual-investor-conference.
The conference matters because it provides a platform for small and mid-cap companies that are critical to the AI ecosystem but may not be on the radar of mainstream investors. As AI continues to dominate market narratives, the event allows investors to hear directly from management teams about their strategies, financials, and growth prospects. It also underscores the growing trend of virtual investor conferences, which offer efficient access to a broad audience. Virtual Investor Conferences, an OTC Markets Group Inc. property, regularly features public companies from exchanges worldwide, including NYSE, Nasdaq, TSX, TSXV, CSE, ASX, LSE, and OTC Markets. B2i Digital, as the Official Marketing Partner, brings its media network of over 800 outlets and a monthly audience of 330 million to amplify the event. For retail and institutional investors alike, the October 1 conference represents a chance to engage directly with the companies shaping the future of technology.
