State of AI 2026 (SOA26)

January 22nd, 2026 | Impact Hub Vienna

The State of AI 2026 (SOA26) is a 3-hour, networking-focused event bringing together developers, researchers, and change-makers. Supported by the Nexus Group AI, this year's focus is the next frontier: Agentic AI.

Join us to explore how Europe's AI ecosystem can foster peace, drive innovation, and tackle global challenges while ensuring a human-centric approach.

We move beyond abstract talk to dive into the practical strategies needed to manage autonomous systems. We will focus on balancing:

• Innovation: Secure R&D and deployment of AI agents.
• Human Impact: Reskilling, adaptation, and building trust.
• Governance: Applying the EU AI Act to advanced agents across Austria and the EU.

Networking starts: 7:00 PM
