Open Call for Sponsorship: Global AI Impact Summit 2026 – UK Pavilion

AI IMPACT SUMMIT

The Global AI Impact Summit 2026 will be the first major global AI summit hosted in the Global South (India), building on the momentum of the UK‑hosted AI Safety Summit (2023), the Seoul AI Summit (2024), and the Paris Action Summit (2025). It is expected to be the largest and most influential AI convening to date, bringing together governments, multilateral institutions, academia, global industry leaders, and pioneering startups.

Spanning over 70,000 square meters, the Expo is expected to host more than 1.5 lakh attendees and over 400 exhibitors from India and across the world. The Summit focuses on advancing safe, trusted, and inclusive AI innovation – while enabling the Global South to actively shape the international AI governance, investment, and innovation agenda.

The Summit will feature seven thematic zones:

• Human capital development
• Inclusion for social empowerment
• Safe & trusted AI
• Science
• Resilience, innovation and efficiency
• Democratising AI resources
• AI for economic development & social good

For the UK, the Summit represents an unparalleled platform to demonstrate global leadership, advance pro‑innovation regulation, and position the UK as a partner of choice for AI investment, research collaboration, and cutting‑edge capability development.
