Mini World NYC

Where enterprise AI meets intelligent infrastructure.

Wednesday, May 27, 2026 | 12:00–5:30 PM | New York City

AI is changing how enterprises run. The cost of getting it wrong is already showing up in your compute bills, your team’s time, and the gap between what your data promises and what it delivers.

Mini World NYC brings together the people figuring it out. Half a day, a small room, and a live look at what the Strategy + Google Cloud stack actually does in practice, from cutting compute costs to deploying AI agents that connect to your real enterprise data.

This is a small, curated room. Register before it fills up.

Saint John’s Terminal

550 Washington Street, New York, NY 10014

Mini World NYC is hosted at Google’s Saint John’s Terminal — one of the most striking office spaces in New York City, and a fitting backdrop for a day about the future of enterprise technology.

Built in 1934 as the terminus of the High Line freight rail — the same elevated line that became the park — the building was purchased by Google in 2022 for $2.1 billion and reimagined into a 12-story, 1.3-million-square-foot headquarters in Hudson Square. The space features a Great Hall, landscaped terraces with Hudson River views, 1.5 acres of rooftop and street-level gardens, and interiors that pay homage to New York City throughout. It’s a building worth seeing in person.
