Leadership Council

The Ai4 Executive Leadership Council helps to guide programming at Ai4 events. The council is also a platform for AI executive leaders at the highest level to collaborate and learn from one another – discussing the complexities of AI deployment, driving transformative innovation, and ensuring responsible and impactful use of AI technologies.

We empower responsible AI collaboration.

By gathering leaders of enterprise from across industry, government organizations, disruptive startups, investors, research labs, academia, associations, open source projects, media and analysts, we are creating the largest and most influential arena for idea-sharing, AI-related commerce, and technological progress. Our mission at Ai4 is to help provide a common framework for what AI means to both enterprise and the future of our globe as we transition into a new era of responsible human-machine collaboration.
