World Summit AI 2020 | World Summit AI | 14 October 2020 | Virtual Event

The world’s leading and largest AI summit gathers the global AI ecosystem of Enterprise, BigTech, Startups, Investors and Science, the brightest brains in AI as speakers every year to tackle head-on the most burning AI issues and set the global AI agenda.

What’s on in 2020?
During these uncertain times and with the safety of the WSAI community in our hearts, we’ve decided to move World Summit AI online. We’ve also redesigned the summit into a more simple and practical way to consume the same world-class content by splitting the summit into 9 online events delivered over a 3 month period, from September to November 2020, as part of the Inspired AI event series.

This year your ticket will give you access to not only 1 but 9 bite-sized, CPD accredited online events, tech talks, networking areas, headline sessions, case studies and live speaker Q&A so you can create a personalised schedule that cater to your own needs and demands without taking too much time off work!

Who’s coming?
From CEOs to CTOs, FTSE 500 corporates to heads of AI, scientists, technologists, academics, startups and investors from every corner of the globe, you will be in great company. The event is brimming with opportunities for partnerships and engaging conversations.

We’ve got the perfect networking area for you to connect, featuring an automated 1-2-1 chat roulette, matchmaking with like-minded professionals and live video meetings to facilitate connections between all attendees. It is essential that new relationships are formed now, new connections are required to push forward progress.

We combine unrivalled and creative methods of connecting the AI ecosystem and give a unique opportunity to hear about the latest ground-breaking new innovations in AI, do business and tackle head-on the most burning AI issues affecting humanity.
