Gary Vaynerchuk, Daymond John, Neil Patel and more than 60 speakers will take the stage as HighLevel brings its global community to Dallas for four days focused on AI, entrepreneurship and what’s next for business growth

DALLAS, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — More than 1,500 founders, entrepreneurs, agency owners and business builders from around the world will arrive in Dallas this month for HighLevel LevelUp 2026, the annual gathering hosted by HighLevel, the AI-powered operating system for small and medium businesses, agencies and founders.

Taking place October 26–29 at the Hilton Anatole, LevelUp 2026 will bring four days of programming focused on entrepreneurship, artificial intelligence, marketing, business operations and growth to Dallas. More than 60 speakers will take the stage, including Gary Vaynerchuk, Chairman of VaynerX and CEO of VaynerMedia; Daymond John, founder and CEO of FUBU and CEO of The Shark Group; Neil Patel, co-founder of NP Digital; Ryan Deiss, founder and CEO of The Scalable Company; former NFL player and performance coach Trent Shelton; entrepreneur and content strategist Adley Kinsman; and Billy Gene, founder and CEO of Billy Gene Is AI & XR Marketing.

The event comes as businesses are navigating a rapidly changing operating environment shaped by AI, automation and rising expectations to accomplish more without adding proportional headcount. LevelUp will bring together the founders and operators building businesses in that environment with entrepreneurs, marketers and technology leaders sharing the systems and strategies they are using to grow.

“Bringing more than 1,500 founders, entrepreneurs, agency owners and business builders to Dallas makes LevelUp more than an event. For four days, this city will become a meeting point for some of the most ambitious people building businesses, creating jobs and defining how AI will change the way we work and grow,” HighLevel’s founding triumvirate, Shaun Clark, Varun Vairavan and Robin Alex, said in a joint statement. “There is tremendous power in putting that much ingenuity, experience and ambition in one place. We’re proud to bring that energy to Dallas and create an environment where our community can learn from each other, see what’s possible and leave with technology and ideas they can put to work immediately.”

A major focus of LevelUp 2026 will be the next generation of technology businesses and agencies use to operate and grow. Clark, Vairavan and Alex will unveil more than 300 product features and updates during the event, alongside the first look at HighLevel’s 2027 product roadmap.

Attendees will be the first to see what HighLevel is building for 2027 before the roadmap is shared outside the event, offering an early view into how the company sees AI, automation and emerging technology reshaping the way businesses operate.

Beyond the main stage, LevelUp will include breakout sessions, live product demonstrations, Q&A sessions with HighLevel’s co-founders, an exhibition hall and programming focused on the operational challenges facing agencies, entrepreneurs and business owners. Attendees will also hear directly from business operators about how they are applying AI, automation and repeatable systems across marketing, sales and day-to-day operations.
