Governor Wes Moore held the Maryland Innovation Summit in Baltimore, gathering about 400 leaders from government, business, labor, philanthropy and academia. At the event the Maryland State Innovation Team unveiled the Maryland Business AI Report, based on a June‑July 2026 survey of roughly 300 senior business decision‑makers. The benchmark provides the first comprehensive data set on AI use, productivity effects and future expectations for Maryland firms. The summit featured remarks from the governor, state officials, congressional representatives, foundation leaders, and Anthropic’s head of public policy, and included deep‑dive tracks on workforce development, economic growth, child safety, worker rights and responsible AI adoption in government services.
The Maryland Innovation Summit, organized by the Maryland State Innovation Team, took place on a single day in Baltimore and attracted roughly 400 participants representing a cross‑section of the state’s economic and civic leadership. Governor Moore opened the event with a keynote emphasizing Maryland’s role as a national model for AI and inclusive economic growth.
During the summit, the team released the Maryland Business AI Report. The report stems from a survey conducted between June and July 2026 that reached nearly 300 senior decision‑makers at Maryland businesses of varying sizes and sectors. Key findings detail the extent of AI adoption, perceived productivity improvements, and expectations for future workforce impacts.
Speakers included U.S. Representative April McClain Delaney, Maryland Comptroller Brooke Lierman, Anthropic’s public policy head Sarah Heck, AFL‑CIO President Donna Edwards, and leaders from five national foundations and six Maryland higher‑education institutions. Sessions explored three core questions: investing in workers, leveraging AI for economic growth while safeguarding labor, and designing models that balance risk and opportunity.
The summit also highlighted the Maryland Community Compass, an AI‑enabled platform launched in September that supports small businesses and community developers. The platform, built in partnership with Anthropic, has already logged more than 18,500 active users and is backed by $14 million in new state funding.

The summit also signals Maryland’s intent to become a model for state‑level , potentially influencing other jurisdictions that lack federal direction.
The provides the state’s most granular evidence base on AI adoption, filling a data gap that has hampered policy design in many jurisdictions. With concrete metrics on productivity gains and workforce expectations, Maryland can craft targeted interventions—such as upskilling programs for workers whose roles are most affected by AI.
By publicly committing to principles of protection, worker centering, and child safety, the Moore‑Miller administration is establishing a framework that could be replicated elsewhere, especially as federal AI regulation remains pending.

Future state actions that translate insights into concrete programs—such as AI‑focused training grants, tax incentives for responsible AI deployment, or updated labor protections—will be critical. Watch for any legislation or executive orders that address identified gaps in worker rights or child safety, as well as the rollout of the Maryland Community Compass platform, which already serves over 18,500 users.
