RAISE Summit
About the Event
RAISE is the world’s leading AI summit that brings together 9,000 top AI leaders and C-suite executives from global corporations. The event serves as the definitive platform for industry leaders to move from AI ambition to real-world strategy and measurable impact. Attendees include executives, investors, builders, and policymakers who gather to learn, debate, and accelerate their AI transformation.
The summit features four core tracks: Foundation, Frontier, Friction, and Future. These tracks are designed to meet attendees where they lead – whether they build, invest, regulate, or innovate – and guide them toward where AI is truly heading. The Foundation track focuses on technologies, infrastructures, and capital strategies that empower builders and investors to drive the next wave of global AI progress.
Raise Summit attracts over 2,000 companies and 350 speakers, with 80% of attendees being C-levels and founders. The event includes various activities such as the world’s largest AI startup competition with a €10 million prize pool, and the biggest global AI hackathon with a €200,000 prize pool. These competitions provide platforms for startups and developers to showcase their innovations.
The summit takes place at the prestigious Carrousel du Louvre in Paris, providing an elegant backdrop for networking and deal-making. Past speakers have included industry titans like Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google, and other prominent figures from major tech companies. The event has been praised for its energy, innovation focus, and ability to bring together Europe’s AI community.
RAISE has established itself as the fastest-growing AI tech conference in Europe and possibly in history. The summit creates opportunities for attendees to engage in meaningful dialogue between what exists, what’s emerging, what’s challenging, and what’s next in AI. This conversation drives intelligence evolution, shifts boundaries, and shapes the future of artificial intelligence.
