Davos AI Summit 2026

Building on a Global Vision

At the height of WEF 2026, The Imagination in Action Davos AI Summit convenes on January 21, 2026, at the iconic Dome in Davos. The 2026 edition, The Inflection of Intelligence: Our World Reimagined, marks a new era for global AI dialogue — a defining forum where the future of intelligence is shaped in real time.
The summit brings together the world’s foremost thinkers — from the global science and innovation community, Nobel laureates, and industry pioneers — and features a rare convergence anchored by the world’s leading AI laboratories from MIT and Stanford.


Throughout the day, we explore the key inflection points across General, Embodied, Foundational, Societal, and Planetary Intelligence, examining how breakthroughs in AI and sustainability are shaping the trajectory of the intelligent age.
The inaugural IIA Davos AI Award will be presented, honoring the luminaries advancing the evolution of artificial intelligence, and the visionary leaders who challenge boundaries and translate bold imagination into meaningful global impact.
