At a time when AI conferences were geared towards research & academia, AI Business launched The AI Summit in 2015; the first-ever conference & exhibition globally to explore what AI practically means for enterprises.
Partnering with IBM Watson, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Facebook, PwC and Intel among many others, we took the world’s business community by storm in London, San Francisco, Singapore, Cape Town, Tokyo and New York City…
With eight sold-out conferences & exhibitions in 2017, The AI Summit brought together over 9000 delegates of the world’s leading organisations engaging in meaningful conversations on how to prepare for an AI-powered future. As the first and only global event series, The AI Summit events have returned bigger & more impactful in 2018 with shows in London, Hong Kong, San Francisco, New York, Cape Town and Singapore.
