World Summit AI is the flagship gathering of the global AI ecosystem, returning to Amsterdam on 8–9 October 2025 at Taets Art & Event Park. This year’s theme—“Back to the future: It’s about time”—invites attendees to reflect on AI’s past, confront the present, and shape what comes next through keynotes, case studies, live demos, and hands-on sessions. Expect a cross-section of enterprise leaders, startups, researchers, policymakers, and investors tackling topics from frontier models and MLOps to regulation, safety, and responsible deployment.

The summit anchors World AI Week (6–10 October 2025), a city-wide festival of 40–50+ satellite events, meetups, and showcases across Amsterdam—so your ticket can be paired with specialized gatherings and networking around town. Organizers and partners highlight significant scale for 2025, with guides noting 15,000+ participants across World AI Week and third-party listings projecting 7,500+ attendees, 200 speakers, and 17+ tracks at the summit itself. Whether you’re scouting deals, recruiting talent, or pressure-testing an AI roadmap, WSAI concentrates the people and ideas shaping the field into two high-intensity days.
