Announcement

Yorkseed Moves Frontier Day to 2027 and Opens Partnerships for Its Deep Tech, Physical AI and Health Tech Gathering

October 21, 2026 New York, NY

NEW YORK, October 21, 2026: Yorkseed today announced that Frontier Day, its one-day gathering for Deep Tech, Physical AI, AI Applications and Health Tech, will take place in 2027. The 2026 edition has been postponed, and Yorkseed is opening the planning window to partners and sponsors who want to help shape the next edition from the start.

Frontier Day brings together the people building, funding and commercializing hard technology: selected founders, investors, researchers and industry leaders, for one immersive day that opens inside a working robotics facility, where Physical AI moves from research demo to repeatable motion.

Four focus areas, one room

  • Deep Tech: companies where the science is the moat, from lab spinouts to capital-intensive roadmaps.
  • Physical AI: AI moving into machines and physical environments, robotics, autonomy and human-machine interaction.
  • AI Applications: applied AI products, agentic systems, developer infrastructure and AI in financial services.
  • Health Tech: AI-enabled diagnostics and care delivery, digital health and life sciences commercialization.

The theme reflects where Yorkseed's community is heading. In 2026, Yorkseed was community partner to ARC, whose human-piloted humanoid fights drew audiences in New York and Singapore, one of the clearest signs that Physical AI is moving into public view.

"We chose to move Frontier Day to 2027 rather than rush it. Deep tech and Physical AI deserve a room built with the right partners from day one, and this gives us the time to build it properly."

Jessica Sophia Wong, Founder, Yorkseed

Partners and sponsors

Yorkseed is inviting partners across Deep Tech, Physical AI, AI Applications, Health Tech, research and financial services, including a presenting partner, to join during the planning window and help shape the 2027 program. Date and city will be announced to Yorkseed Connect members first. Partnership enquiries: yorkseed.co/frontier.
