India to Host AI Summits in 2025 and 2026
India is going to have two big meetings about computers and how they can help people.
The first meeting is in Bhubaneswar in December 2025, and it's about how computers can help the environment, people, and make things better.
The second meeting is in New Delhi in February 2026, and it's about how computers can help women and girls.
They will show a special book with stories about how computers can make things fairer and safer for women.
There will also be a contest called AI by HER where women can show their ideas for using computers to help with things like keeping people safe online and stopping bad information.
They are working with other groups to make sure that the computers they build are fair and include everyone's experiences.
Odisha is hosting the Regional AI Impact Summit 2025 in Bhubaneswar, focusing on sustainable AI future and scalable public AI solutions.
India will host the India-AI Impact Summit 2026 in New Delhi, showcasing gender-responsive AI solutions and the AI by HER: The Impact Challenge for Women in AI.
The summits aim to advance AI solutions focused on people, planet, and progress, with a focus on inclusivity, affordability, and equity.
IndiaAI is partnering with UN Women and civil-society organisations to embed gender sensitivity into AI systems and promote gender equality.
The goal is to ensure that AI is available for the benefit of all, with a focus on multilingual access, data security, and ethical considerations.
