Venues New Delhi

The AI Impact Summit is an international summit on artificial intelligence (AI) scheduled to be held in Delhi from 19 to 20 February 2026. [1] It follows the AI Action Summit in Paris in February 2025, the 2024 AI Seoul Summit in 2024 and the Bletchley Park AI Safety Summit in 2023.

The summit will mark a further step away from governmental concerns about the safety of AI. According to professional services firm Crowell: "It looks to shift the AI conversation from the AI “Safety” and “Action” themes of the earlier summits to one focused on “Impact”. This represents a strategic evolution from previous convenings to move beyond governance and safety-focused dialogues, to one that drives implementation and measurable outcomes, particularly for deployment across the Global South, and strong multi-sectoral collaboration."
