At World Summit AI Amsterdam, we believe AI leadership doesn’t exist in isolation. The organisations successfully navigating AI transformation are also rethinking strategy, resilience, governance and long-term growth.

That’s why we’re proud to continue our partnership with Your Business Magazine — sharing content that supports better decision-making across our global business community.

Their latest editions bring together respected voices from the world of entrepreneurship and investment, offering practical thinking for leaders operating in today’s evolving market conditions.

World Summit AI returns to Amsterdam in October 2026, marking 10 years at the forefront of global AI innovation.

As we prepare for this landmark anniversary edition, we’re raising the bar across every part of the experience. World Summit AI 2026 will be bigger, more focused and more globally connected than ever before — bringing the international AI ecosystem together on one stage.

“Imagine all the people living life in peace…” — John Lennon

There’s a moment we’re living in right now — a precipice — where the future feels uncertain, fragile, and deeply unsettled. But imagination has always been the starting point for change.

From this point forward, we get to decide how we move, what we stand for, and the kind of world we’re actively working to build. As we set the tone for 2026, this is the mindset guiding everything we do at InspiredMinds!: imagining a better future — and choosing to act on it, now.

What if Artificial Intelligence wasn’t just for experts, but for everyone? World Summit AI 2025 speaker Uchenna Victor Moses, Digital Project Manager and author of the AI Global Manual, shares his mission: to make Artificial Intelligence literacy a civic right, not a luxury. From training government workers in Nigeria to imagining AI as a tool for public accountability, Moses is building a future where no one is left behind—not by ignorance, not by design.

What if Artificial Intelligence could translate complexity without dumbing it down? World Summit AI 2025 speaker Dylan Bristot, Product Marketing Lead at Nebius AI Studio, shares how his team is breaking barriers in long-context model training—giving researchers and developers access to capabilities once reserved for tech giants. From podcast edits to legal document comprehension, Bristot is focused on building tools that empower creators, not just corporations. But he also warns: the real risk isn’t sentient machines, it’s humans forgetting how to think.

What if Artificial Intelligence could amplify human imagination instead of automating it? World Summit AI 2025 speaker Jean Arnaud, Director of Strategic Programs at the Cambridge Innovation Center, shares a poetic and provocative vision: AI as a “Plural Mind”—a global mirror embedding empathy, rights, and foresight into the fabric of decision-making. From defending freedom of thought to safeguarding endangered languages, Arnaud challenges us to build systems that deepen collective wisdom rather than diminish it.

What if Artificial Intelligence could power planetary-scale progress—without draining the planet? Ahead of the 10th Anniversary of World Summit AI (7-8 October, Amsterdam) Daniel Wilkinson, Distinguished Architect for Machine Learning Architecture at Synopsys, shares his vision for decentralised, diversified and socially useful Artificial Intelligence. From building the world’s first start-up-led AI accelerator to warning against climate-linked tech arms races, Wilkinson calls for radical innovation in how—and why—we build intelligent systems. 

What if AI could defend truth, dignity, and human connection at scale? Ahead of the 10th Anniversary of World Summit AI (7-8 October, 2026 Amsterdam) Juliet MacDowell, founder of Mission AI, shares how her work with PASSERELLE and CLEAR is turning AI into a tool for social impact—and issues a warning about the consequences if we fail to code AI for people rather than profit.

What if AI could help anyone create film-quality stories inside the worlds they love? Ahead of World Summit AI 2025 (October 08–09, Amsterdam), Yalin Solmaz, AI Filmmaker at Filmique.ai asks us to imagine a new age of fan-made cinema, and warns of the darker path we risk if GenAI becomes just another tool of automation.

Ahead of World Summit AI 2025 (October 08–09, Amsterdam), Marloes Pomp — Vice President of the European AI Forum and a leading voice at the intersection of AI, government, and society — invites us to rethink what’s possible when technology and democracy move in step. From making government processes faster and more transparent to building entirely new models of communication and economy, she’s asking: can AI create not just smarter systems, but also more peaceful societies?
