The Next AI Summit 2025 is a boutique, invitation‑only gathering designed to catalyse high‑level conversations and deals within Europe’s AI community. Held 20–21 March 2025 in the tiny principality of Andorra la Vella, the summit intentionally limits attendance to around 250 executives, investors and policymakers to foster meaningful connections and strategic discussions.

According to the organisers, the event is non‑profit and privately funded; it aims to accelerate the European AI ecosystem by bringing together world‑class speakers and participants from more than 20 countries. Over two days participants will attend 20+ keynote presentations and panel sessions that explore moonshot innovations, ethical AI, the European AI Act and regulatory landscape, investment trends, and case studies of AI deployment across sectors.

The summit provides curated networking sessions, such as mentor‑mentee dinners, closed‑door round tables, and mountain activities that leverage Andorra’s scenic setting to encourage relationship building. In parallel with the main programme, the summit hosts an innovation showcase where AI startups demo technologies to potential investors and strategic partners.

Speakers include leading academics, founders of European AI unicorns, venture capitalists and government ministers. The organisers emphasise exclusivity: admission is by application, ensuring that participants are senior decision makers who can collaborate on pan‑European initiatives.

The venue is the five‑star Andorra Park Hotel, an alpine resort surrounded by gardens and mountain views. The hotel offers a private environment with conference facilities, spa, and fine dining.

The summit emphasises sustainability and a neutral location — Andorra positions itself as a bridge between Spain and France, offering political neutrality, favourable regulation and high‑speed digital infrastructure. Beyond sessions, attendees can enjoy ski passes, mountain hikes and wellness activities to build camaraderie.

The combination of a small, curated group, exclusive setting and high‑value content makes the Next AI Summit a unique platform for forging strategic alliances and investment opportunities in Europe’s AI landscape.

Attendance type: In-person
