AI leaders from around the world will gather for the third edition of the Global AI Summit (GAIN), organized under the patronage of His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince, Prime Minister and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Saudi Data & Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA), from September 10-12, 2024, at the King Abdulaziz International Conference Center in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The summit will be hosted by the Saudi Data & Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) and will explore pivotal themes such as generative AI, AI in urban life, and ethical governance of AI, ensuring a comprehensive discussion on the impact of technology on society, business, and governance. The summit will also witness participation from industry giants such as Accenture, Oracle, Dell Technologies, Siemens, Boston Dynamics, and Google Cloud.

A future where the need for international collaboration to fully harness AI’s potential and manage its impact responsibly has never been more urgent.”

His Excellency Dr. Alghamdi added: “Under the visionary leadership of His Royal Highness Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Saudi Arabia is committed to advancing AI technologies that are beneficial to all of humanity. We look forward to welcoming leaders and innovators from around the world to Riyadh as we collectively explore how AI can be harnessed to create a brighter, more inclusive future.”
