Overview
The Future of AI Summit has closed for another year but we'll be back again next year on 4-5 November 2026. Thank you to all those who attended in-person and online, to our incredible line-up of speakers and sponsors who all greatly contributed to the success of the event.
Artificial intelligence is no longer a novelty; it's a driving force transforming industries, economies, and societies worldwide. As AI continues to advance at a rapid pace, the focus has shifted from merely adopting the technology to understanding how to scale and integrate it effectively. Businesses face complex challenges in managing AI-driven change, from navigating regulatory frameworks, ethics and data privacy laws to addressing workforce challenges and ensuring they maintain a competitive edge.
The Future of AI Summit 2025 explored the evolving landscape of AI innovation, examining practical case studies of AI investment and implementation. Attendees learnt from global AI experts across industries, technology, and policy as they tackle critical issues such as AI governance, regulation and how to navigate the next generation of machine learning, generative AI applications, predictive and prescriptive AI, natural language processing, deep learning and more.
