The fifth international AI Summit — AI as a driver of prosperity, governed responsibly
About This Event
The Geneva AI Summit 2027 takes place June 21-22, 2027 at Palexpo in Geneva, Switzerland, hosted by the Swiss Confederation as the fifth edition of the international AI Summit series that began at Bletchley Park in 2023 and continued through Seoul, Paris and New Delhi. It is built around two objectives — establishing AI as a driver of prosperity and progress for all, and promoting trustworthy, responsible and safe use of AI — with curated participation from governments, academia, the private sector and civil society.

Why Attend
This is where the next round of international AI rules gets negotiated, and the commitments made here tend to become the compliance obligations enterprises face 18 to 24 months later — as Bletchley, Seoul and Paris each did. A CTO or CIO who attends gets an early, first-hand read on cross-border AI governance direction instead of reacting to it once it lands in regulation.
