About the Summit

Hosted by the AI Without Borders Network

The Global South AI Summit is a groundbreaking international gathering that repositions the Global South as a central force in shaping the future of artificial intelligence. Born out of the realization that the world is bigger than the US-China AI rivalry, this summit is a bold declaration that AI must serve all humanity—not just the powerful few.

Held under the banner of the AI Without Borders Network, the summit convenes visionary leaders, technologists, policymakers, youth innovators, and grassroots changemakers from across Africa, Latin America, Asia, and the Pacific. Together, they explore how AI can be harnessed to advance digital sovereignty, ethical innovation, inclusive development, and local intelligence.
