AI for Georgia Summit 2026

The AI for Georgia Summit 2026 (AIFG) is a dedicated artificial-intelligence summit held at the Hualing Plaza in Tbilisi on 30-31 October 2026. Billed as the first edition of a planned international series — with subsequent editions announced for Manchester (July 2027) and Dubai (November 2027) — it is positioned as a gateway event connecting the Caucasus region to the wider AI economy, framed by the organisers as the point "where Middle East investment, Asian technology, and European standards meet."

The summit is structured as an AI deployment and investment forum rather than a purely academic conference. According to the organisers it expects to draw participants from more than 40 countries, with over 150 international companies and startups exhibiting and more than 30 speakers. The programme is built around practical commercialisation: connecting AI founders and developers with investors, showcasing applied AI products across themed exhibition zones, and running matchmaking between startups and capital. Associated tracks announced on the official site include a Women in AI programme, partner-led masterclasses, an AI Ambassadors programme and a developer-focused stream.

For a directory of worldwide AI events, the summit is notable for filling a genuine geographic gap: the South Caucasus is thinly covered by the established AI conference circuit, and AIFG is one of the first large, AI-core gatherings to anchor itself in Georgia. The focus is squarely on artificial intelligence — deployment, investment and the surrounding ecosystem — rather than being a general technology or business event with AI as one track among many. Registration and tickets are handled through the official site, and exact zone and speaker line-ups are published there as they are confirmed.
