Ahead of the 2026 AI Impact Summit in New Delhi, the Center for Data Innovation and The Dialogue are convening an official pre-summit event, sponsored by Google, in Washington, D.C., on January 20, 2026.
The India AI Impact Summit is a global summit that seeks to move AI cooperation beyond high-level principles toward measurable, real-world impact, particularly for developing countries and the Global South. As AI capabilities remain unevenly distributed, the Summit seeks to close the global AI divide by advancing people-centric, sustainable, and inclusive approaches to AI adoption, governance, and deployment. Anchored in the three Sutras of People, Planet, and Progress, and operationalized through seven Chakras spanning areas such as science, human capital, safe and trusted AI, and democratizing AI resources, the Summit emphasizes practical pathways for applying AI to development priorities at scale.
This Washington, D.C. pre-summit convening will feed directly into the New Delhi Summit agenda.
Date and Time:
- January 20, 2025. 12:00 PM ET
Location:
- 25 Massachusetts Ave NW, Washington, DC 20001
