Sponsor — AI RENAISSANCE

AI Renaissance is a 10-day unconference focused on the political economy of AI. We foster deep relationships, build open-source infrastructure, and brainstorm new institutions and business models for the AI economy. It takes place every year at Bückeburg Palace, Germany, just an hour outside of Hanover.

Who’s been here: Previous years have brought together researchers from HuggingFace, Anthropic, Mila, Oxford, and Stanford alongside policymakers from the Bundestag and the European Parliament, and leadership from civil society organizations like the Bertelsmann Foundation, Future of Life Institute, Chatham House, and the Collective Intelligence Project. For 10 days, you are working directly with the people actively shaping AI in the world.

Sponsoring AIR: As an event conceived and organized for the public benefit, AI Renaissance is only possible with the support of sponsors. Sponsorship and participation can be an excellent value for companies, foundations, and investors that benefit from (or want to explore the benefits of) open source, decentralized, and public AI. Previous sponsors have ranged from government agencies to large tech companies to individual investors. Note that only a limited number of sponsorships are available each year, based on the number of available VIP rooms.
