Europe's exclusive TED Conference
dedicated to Artificial Intelligence
Exceptional AI ideas for an exclusive AI community
TEDAI Vienna is Europe’s official three-day TED event on Artificial Intelligence - an application-only conference where business leaders, inventors and thinkers across industry sectors gather for signature TED Talks, mind-expanding discovery sessions and unforgettable side events on Artificial Intelligence.
The TEDAI Vienna Conference was one of the best conferences I’ve attended in recent years. Each day was meticulously planned, the location was perfect, and the participants were incredibly engaging. The panel discussions were top-notch, and the keynote day hit the mark 100%
TEDAI Vienna 2024 was an inspiring platform bringing together leading voices in AI, innovation, and sustainability. The ideas and collaborations born here have the potential to reshape industries and advance global sustainable development goals, in line with UNIDO’s strategic priorities on ending hunger, clean energy and climate action, and sustainable supply chains
TED AI made a terrific job in offering me the quality content I was searching for in the field of AI for a long time through its fact-checked, and brilliantly-curated program.
TED AI Vienna was a transformative experience that deeply resonated with me, blending insights on AI advancements with profound reflections on humanity and creativity. The event left me inspired, hopeful, and determined to continue advocating for responsible and impactful AI integration in education.

Hofburg, the imperial palace at the heart of Europe
The Imperial Palace of Hofburg, with its roots stretching back to 1279, offers both space and intimacy. Its majestic architecture echoes Europe’s historic legacy and reminds us that we are part of something larger than ourselves - custodians of humanity’s ongoing pursuit for wisdom. It is within the beauty and grandeur of Hofburg that we embark on a journey into the world of Artificial Intelligence and its impact on creativity, commerce, politics and science.
Located in the heart of Vienna, the Hofburg’s central location makes it ideal for exploring the city’s vibrant offerings. For more than seven centuries, the empire of the Habsburgs was ruled from here. Even after the monarchy, it remains the official residence of Austria’s federal president. Expanded gradually from the 13th century, this monumental palace now spans over 300,000 m², ranking among the largest palace complexes in the world.
