SUMMARY:EDIH Summit 2026: Strengthening the AI Innovation Ecosystem
DESCRIPTION:Europe’s AI ambition is expanding. With the AI Act in force\, the AI Continent Action Plan adopted\, and the Apply AI Strategy underway\, the policy framework is established. The key question now is whether the ecosystem is functioning effectively: whether SMEs and public administrations can access the right infrastructure\, obtain trusted guidance\, and progress from initial interest to meaningful AI adoption. This is the central question that this year’s Summit seeks to address. \nAbout the EDIH Summit 2026\nThe EDIH Summit 2026 brings together the full European Digital Innovation Hubs (EDIH) network\, EU institutions\, Member States\, AI infrastructures and innovation actors to examine how Europe’s AI ecosystem functions in practice. Sessions will explore how EDIHs connect organisations with other actors of the EU AI innovation ecosystem\, such as AI Factories\, Testing and Experimentation Facilities (TEFs) and regulatory sandboxes; how common tools and assessment frameworks support this work; and how proven approaches can be scaled across regions and sectors. \nRegister here for the Summit.
