Bot Summit 2016 is coming on April 9th, 2016. Its primary site will be in London, though we may have satellite sites elsewhere. (It will take place in the evening so people in PST through EST time zones can be awake to stream it.) More details are coming soon! Please contact me if you're intersted in sponsoring.
