The United Nations' leading platform for advancing artificial intelligence (AI) for sustainable development, the AI for Good Global Summit 2025, will take place in Geneva, Switzerland from 8 to 11 July 2025.
Organized by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the event will focus on the opportunities and risks presented by the rapid development of "agentic AI" and low-cost AI models.
"As AI development accelerates, so does the urgency to keep innovation aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals," said ITU Secretary-General Doreen Bogdan-Martin. "AI for Good is where the world comes together to ensure these technologies are safe, responsible, and leave no one behind."
The Summit will bring together leading experts from governments, industry, academia, civil society, and the UN to explore how AI is reshaping our world and address challenges such as safety, employment, sustainability, privacy, security, governance, and broader societal and economic impacts.
The AI for Good Global Summit 2025 will also host ITU's second AI Governance Day on 10 July, focusing on safety, trust, international standards, and bridging the regulatory gap. On 11 July, the Summit will host an International AI Standards Exchange, bringing together leading global standards bodies to strengthen AI's technical backbone.
The newly established AI for Good Awards will recognize groundbreaking AI solutions that contribute to global progress on sustainable development.
