Avatar Ignite 2026

The global energy industry stands at a once-in-a-century inflection point.

Artificial intelligence is transforming not only how we produce and distribute energy, but how leaders perform and companies compete. The myth of an easy energy transition has unraveled. Delivering affordable, reliable energy now depends on a new convergence of technology, talent, and capital willing to fund what conventional markets struggle to price.

Across the world, the old rules are dissolving. The next ones haven’t been written. Between them lies possibility - and those bold enough to seize it.

The pace of change is exponential, and the leaders who will shape it are those who fuse technical depth with adaptive thinking, systems insight, and the conviction to build what comes next.

Avatar 2026 exists for exactly that purpose. It’s not a course. It’s not a classroom. It’s a launchpad. It’s where the energy industry’s top emerging talent comes together to design and deliver the technologies and business models that will define the next era of energy.

Over fourteen intensive weeks, you’ll move from theory to action. You’ll master tools that sharpen performance: AI-driven analysis, digital workflows, and rapid-iteration design. You’ll work in cross-functional teams guided by senior executives and industry coaches, tackling critical challenges in:

• Production Optimization
• Natural Gas Value Chains
• Carbon Dioxide Removal & Direct Air Capture
• Subsurface Advancements

This isn’t simulation. You’ll build real prototypes, validate with data, and present to a Shark Tank–style panel of executives who fund and deploy innovation across the global energy system. Leading projects advance to Avatar Studio, where ideas evolve into pilots, partnerships, and investment-ready ventures.

At Avatar, performance is a mindset. You’ll train to think exponentially, execute with precision, and lead with purpose. You’ll collaborate with high-performing peers from across the sector and gain direct access to some of the industry’s most senior business leaders.

Graduates don’t just leave with a certificate. They leave with a portfolio, a network, and a transformed sense of what’s possible in their careers.

Because this isn’t about keeping up with change — it’s about driving it.

Avatar 2026. Build what comes next.
