The Story Behind Prompt Victoria
Vancouver Island’s largest AI conference, built by Victoria’s tech and data community for professionals navigating the age of AI.
From a Sold-Out First Year to a Regional Fixture
Prompt Victoria launched in 2025 as Vancouver Island’s first conference focused on practical AI for business and professionals.
The inaugural event sold out at 350 attendees, featured 28 speakers across two tracks, and finished with an NPS of 71 — among the highest recorded for a first-year conference.
Presented by VIATEC and co-organized with the Victoria Data Society, PlusROI Online Marketing, and AI4Enterprise, the conference grew out of a simple observation: Victoria has real AI expertise, but professionals across the Island needed a neutral space to cut through the hype and share what’s actually working.
For 2026 we return on November 5 at the Victoria Conference Centre with an expanded program — three tracks, more speakers, and the same focus: practical learning, honest conversation, and real connections.
