The Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence (GPAI) is a multi-stakeholder effort that supports innovative research and applied initiatives on AI-related topics with the goal of bridging the gap between theory and practice on AI. GPAI was founded in June 2020 with 15 members; as of right now, the EU and 28 other countries make up the organization’s membership. India is hosting the Annual GPAI Summit from December 12–14, 2023, as one of the founding members of GPAI in 2020, the incoming Support Chair of GPAI, and the Lead Chair for GPAI in 2024. On December 12, 2023, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will give the event’s opening speech.
Participants in the summit will include global AI experts, international organizations, GPAI’s multi-stakeholder Experts’ Group, and senior-level government delegations from 26 GPAI member nations and the EU. The AI Gamechangers Award is being organized by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) as a component of the Annual GPAI Summit. In order to advance the technological frontier and GPAI’s thematic priorities of global health, climate change, resilient society, collaborative AI for global partnership (CAIGP), and sustainable agriculture, this esteemed event will honor and recognize AI entrepreneurs and innovators from a variety of backgrounds.
