Where the biggest stories in European enterprise AI break
10–11 February 2027 | Palais des Festivals, Cannes
WAICF 2027 is the first edition organised by Informa as part of The AI Summit Series - the global platform for enterprise AI across London, New York and Melbourne.
Two days in Cannes with 7,500+ senior professionals, 200+ expert speakers and the conversations that set the European AI agenda for the year ahead.
Why Cover WAICF 2027?
The Palais des Festivals in February attracts a calibre of senior executive that is hard to access elsewhere. The people on stage and in the room - DSI, CDO, CTO from Europe's largest organisations are making the AI decisions that will define their strategy in 2027.
That is the story WAICF tells, and Cannes is where it is told. Topics shaping the 2027 programme include: AI deployment at scale, the EU AI Act and European AI governance, data infrastructure and sovereignty, agentic AI, and the commercial and organisational transformation AI is driving across European enterprise.
