CULTURE CONVERGENCE 2026
An Inspiring Evening of Tech, Art & Innovation


Culture Convergence returns for 2026 with an exclusive, one-night private soirée at Baja Haus in Wayzata—bringing together fresh perspectives on innovative and disruptive technologies with great food and meaningful connections.

Join founders, independent community leaders, local artists, developers, entrepreneurs, educators, and innovators from across blockchain, AI, data, real estate, and disruptive technology for an intimate evening of ideas and conversation.

Three structured, moderated panel discussions will explore decentralized data and compute, electric vehicle infrastructure and self-driving, and how digital and tokenized assets—and the policies shaping them—are changing the game locally and beyond.

Between panels and over dinner, enjoy time to mingle, exchange ideas, and connect over some of Baja Haus’s top food selections, including fajitas, queso, and appetizers, with drinks available throughout the evening. VIP guests can also enjoy a caviar and oyster bar, while supplies last, along with an alcoholic or non-alcoholic drink ticket.

Come for fresh, independent perspectives. Stay for the conversations—and the people shaping what comes next.
