Can the EU join the AI revolution?

Artificial intelligence and frontier technologies are key to driving Europe’s growth. The new European Commission is set on boosting the EU's position in the global digital economy with new investments and a focus on innovation and sovereignty. Can it get Europe to compete with the U.S. and China on cutting-edge tech? 

At the 8th edition of the POLITICO AI & Tech Summit, you’ll hear directly from EU policymakers, industry leaders, and tech innovators on how Europe can take and keep control over AI and frontier technologies amid fierce global competition. You'll hear from leaders on Europe's boldest ideas on everything from scaling start-ups, advancing sustainability and boosting cybersecurity, all the way to safeguarding Europe's data and democracy itself.
