AE Global Summit 2026
Open Problems for AI
Open problems for AI.
The AE Global Summit 2026 (the Algorithmic Innovation and Entrepreneurship Global Summit) is a three-day AI conference at Friends House, 173 to 177 Euston Road, London, from Wednesday 25 to Friday 27 November 2026. The theme is Open Problems for AI. It brings together AI researchers, engineers, founders, investors and policymakers, with speakers from Google DeepMind, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Wayve and Imperial College London. It is organised by Thinking About Thinking, founded by Dr Ruairidh Battleday and Professor James Whittington. Three-day tickets are £45 for students and £90 general; day tickets are £15 for students and £30 general.
Each day of the summit takes one area where AI still has hard, unsolved problems: research and infrastructure, safety and society, and the companies applying AI to biology, medicine and science. The aim is to put the people working on those problems in one room.
