Capitol Technology University will be headed out west this summer to meet and recruit new students and make industry connections. You’ll find us in Las Vegas at Ai4 from August 4–6 at the Venetian Resort and at DEF CON 34 from August 6–9 at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) West Hall.
Attendees will have the opportunity to meet our team of expert faculty and staff—including Dr. William Butler and President Bradford Sims—who will represent our nationally recognized programs, industry partnerships, research initiatives, and career pathways in cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, engineering, and emerging technologies. Exclusive Capitol Tech swag will be available at each convention and online.
Visit us in the Exhibitor’s Hall at Ai4 (booth #104) and DEF CON 34 (booth #1404).
Ai4 2026 is one of the world's premier conferences dedicated to artificial intelligence and machine learning. As the first Maryland university to offer a Bachelor of Science in AI, Capitol Tech has continued to be a higher education trailblazer at the forefront of new technology. Our new AI lab and learning environment (CAILIE) is equipped with on-site high-performance servers, specialized software, cloud-accessible resources, and state-of-the-art development tools. This combined lab and curriculum program provides students and researchers with the infrastructure needed to explore machine learning, generative AI, autonomous systems, and data analytics—without the looming questions about data privacy and cost/availability of AI credits.
DEF CON unites a uniquely diverse audience around the topic of cybersecurity—from tech hobbyists and students to industry experts and military leadership—seeking both networking and educational opportunities. The conference's renowned villages, workshops, competitions, and community-driven activities provide attendees with hands-on experiences and access to new cyber trends. As Capitol Tech looks forward to celebrating the 25th anniversary of our cybersecurity programs this fall—as one of the first universities in the nation to offer this degree—we once again reach out to the DEF CON community to recruit new students and technology partners.
By participating in both DEF CON 34 and Ai4 2026, Capitol Tech demonstrates our commitment to remaining at the forefront of technological advancement while preparing students to lead and grow their careers in an increasingly interconnected world.
We invite you to join us for Ai4 2026 and DEF CON 34, an exciting week-long celebration of technology in Las Vegas! Stop by our booths if you are attending!
