All Wireless & Prepaid Expo 2026
2026-08-18 00:00 - 2026-08-19 23:59 | Caesars Palace, 3570 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV, 89109, United States
All Wireless & Prepaid Expo 2026 is scheduled for August 18–19 in the Julius Ballrooms at Caesars Palace. Produced by Prepaid Expo LLC, the business-to-business event serves companies involved in prepaid and postpaid wireless service, mobile virtual network operations, device sales and repair, accessories, payments, insurance, financing, software, and retail technology. Its audience includes wireless dealers, electronics retailers, repair businesses, distributors, carriers, mobile virtual network operators, technology vendors, and companies that provide operational services to those businesses. The organizer reported that dealers, repair shops, and electronics retailers accounted for 67 percent of attendance in 2025, indicating that the program is built substantially around the needs of storefront operators as well as network and technology companies.
The 2026 schedule divides the event between an exhibit hall, conference sessions, and focused training. The main conference examines the prepaid market, carrier and dealer relationships, mobile virtual network operators, certified pre-owned devices and trade-ins, expansion beyond handset sales, artificial intelligence in retail operations, right-to-repair policy, Lifeline program changes, payment fraud, cybersecurity, and store security. A live dealer review is also included in the conference program. The second day adds training tracks covering device diagnostics and repair as well as the use of artificial intelligence and automation for customer communication, lead response, and retail marketing. Exhibits operate on both days, giving retailers and service providers time to compare products, distribution arrangements, software, and other business services. The event also runs a retailer program for qualifying dealers and retailers, while exhibitors and sponsors participate through commercial packages. Food functions and an exhibit-floor reception are incorporated into the show schedule rather than separated at another property.
History in Las Vegas
The organizer dates All Wireless & Prepaid Expo to 2008 and describes the 2026 program as representing 18 years of operation. Available records place recent editions at Caesars Palace. A 2024 announcement identified that year’s gathering as the 16th expo and listed Caesars Palace as the venue, and official exhibitor materials show that the 2025 edition also used the property. The 2026 event therefore continues an established Las Vegas and Caesars Palace run rather than introducing the conference to the city. Over that period, the event expanded beyond its original prepaid-wireless concentration to include repair, accessories, software, financial services, and other parts of wireless retail. Its current format reflects that broader scope while retaining prepaid service and dealer distribution as central subjects.
Location
Caesars Palace is located on Las Vegas Boulevard in the central Strip resort corridor. The expo uses the Julius Ballrooms for exhibit activity and the Verona room for conference and training sessions, allowing the trade floor and educational program to operate within the same resort complex. Exhibitor setup begins before the public program, and the published schedule places registration, conference sessions, exhibit hours, food functions, and the exhibit-floor reception within the Caesars Palace meeting area. This arrangement is relevant to an event that alternates between scheduled education and supplier meetings throughout two compact days. It also reduces the need to move products, demonstration equipment, and retail-technology displays between separate conference sites.

Emotional AI Loops- do you "get" me?
2026-08-20 10:30 - 12:30 | Desert Research Institute, 755 East Flamingo Rd, Las Vegas, NV, 89119, US
Hello LV Robotics!
Apologies on the delay. We’ve been busy building LV Robotics and will share updates at our event.
As AI advances into the realm of realism are we ready for equally real emotions and behaviors from robots? Will they show and feel true emotions or politely mimic them for our benefit? For the next LV Robotics event we will explore how empathy, trust, and emotional intelligence will redefine human-robot relationships.
Today’s AI understands language.
Tomorrow’s robots will need to understand people.
Not simply by recognizing a smile or detecting anger—but by participating in continuous empathy loops that shape behavior over time.
Every interaction becomes a feedback loop.
Human emotion → Robot interpretation → Robot response → Human emotional reaction → Robot learns → Relationship evolves.
The robot isn’t just completing tasks.
It’s building a relationship.
An Emotional AI Loop is a continuous cycle where a robot:
(+) Observes human behavior (+) Infers emotional state (+) Chooses an appropriate response (+) Measures the human reaction (+) Updates its internal model (+) Improves the next interaction
Eventually…
The robot begins adapting to you, not just people.
Can a robot “get” me? Is empathy learned or simulated?
Does empathy require consciousness?
Or is empathy simply: Producing the behavior that makes another person feel understood?
If that’s true…
Maybe empathy is an engineering problem.
Join us for our first lunch time event at DRI. Yes, this a new time so hopefully many of you can escape work for this.
We have some great speakers— some famous and some soon to be famous AI people. We will post their names and bios soon.
Thanks everyone!
Bob & Darius

FounderNV Presents From Expert to Partner: The Conversation Shift That Closes Deals with Irina Dzyubinsky
2026-08-20 18:00 - 19:15
Most founders don’t lose deals because of their product. They lose them because of how they show up in the conversation. The default is “expert mode” leading with credentials, correcting the room, talking more than listening. You walk out feeling like you nailed it. Then you never hear back. In this session, Irina Dzyubinsky breaks down why that happens and shares a practical framework for shifting from pitching to partnering, including a real-time tool for reading any conversation, and how founders can use AI to practice high-stakes conversations before they count. Who it’s for: Early-stage founders navigating investor and prospect conversations. About the Speaker Irina Dzyubinsky is a StartUpNV mentor, BD strategist, and founder communication coach who works with early-stage founders on the conversations that make or break deals.

FounderNV Presents Grow Into It: How Founders Can Start Before They Feel Ready
2026-09-17 18:00 - 19:15
In this session, Rafael shares practical, hard-won lessons on starting before you feel ready: how to make progress without perfect resources, how to move from idea to execution without a flawless roadmap, and what it actually takes to grow a company from nothing. Who it’s for: Early-stage founders who don’t have investors, a big team, or a perfect plan yet – and are wondering if that means they shouldn’t start. About the Speaker Rafael Kartaszynski is a serial entrepreneur, mentor, and investor who has built companies across Europe and the U.S. – from a med-tech company he co-founded with his father in Poland that now operates in over 110 countries, to ventures spanning healthcare, gaming, food, and education. He’s the founder of TechEdge Dynamics, a growth studio helping startups and SMEs scale with AI and technology, and of Visionaries NV, a platform helping international founders establish operations in the U.S. Rafael works with early-stage founders on market entry, product-market fit, and scaling and is the author of Grow Into It , a book on building without a perfect plan.
