Open Insights. Real Impact. Powered by People.
The AI Forward Alliance (AIFA) is a global initiative that brings together key AI decision-makers—from some of the most influential companies, upcoming startups, top consultancies, and research institutions. Our mission: To foster knowledge exchange, create transparency, and accelerate meaningful AI adoption.
Currently, the AI Forward Alliance is hosted by PANTA RHAI until it is established as an independent NGO.
AIFA is not just about AI—it’s about the people shaping it. While Artificial Intelligence is transforming industries, reshaping business models, and redefining how organizations operate, the conversation remains fragmented.
What are the real challenges AI leaders face? What strategies work best? And how can AI be implemented responsibly, sustainably, and at scale?
