​DeAI Summit 2026: Beyond Borders, The Inflection Point of AI

​25–26 November 2026 | Malta - Europe

​🌟 DeAI Summit 2026 brings together the people building, funding, regulating, and challenging the future of AI.

​Welcoming 500+ elite international delegates from over 50 countries + VIPs from AI labs, decentralized infrastructure, regulation, academia, venture capital, enterprise, and public policy to discuss one of the defining questions of this era: who holds the power of AI.

​The 2026 theme, “Beyond Borders: The Inflection Point of AI,” is built around three core pillars that are also foundational properties of decentralized AI:

​▪️ Sustainability — systems that endure: environmentally efficient, institutionally resilient, and economically viable beyond the survival or business model of any one company
▪️ Security — distributed systems that resist single points of failure, tampering, and capture; intelligence that can be inspected and defended
▪️ Sovereignty — control over models, data, and compute remains with the institution, nation, or person using the AI, rather than a distant provider

​Together, these pillars shape the summit’s central agenda: how to widen access to AI capability so that more nations, institutions, builders, and communities can participate in building and benefiting from it.

​Topics to be discussed include:

​▪️ Who holds the power of AI, and how that circle can be widened
▪️ Centralized vs decentralized AI architectures
▪️ Compliance and governance under the EU AI Act
▪️ AI safety, transparency, and accountability
▪️ Societal impact, labor transformation, and democratic resilience
▪️ Capital allocation across next-generation AI systems
▪️ Investment opportunities in decentralized AI infrastructure and startups

​The summit will feature keynotes, investor sessions, startup competitions, investment panels, and high-level networking, with speakers and contributors from leading universities, policy institutions, frontier labs, and the wider AI ecosystem.

​For founders and startup teams, the event offers direct access to investors, enterprise partners, regulators, and ecosystem leaders shaping the next phase of AI infrastructure and deployment.
