Oxford Generative AI Summit 2026

The Oxford Generative AI Summit (OxGen) is an annual two-day gathering at the intersection of generative AI and society, organized by OxGen AI and hosted at Jesus College, University of Oxford. With 250 carefully selected participants, the event focuses on in-depth multi-stakeholder dialogue regarding enterprise adoption, ethical implications, and the societal consequences of AI.

Quality over quantity, Oxford over hype

The Oxford Generative AI Summit deliberately distinguishes itself from major technology fairs through its intimate setting. A maximum of 250 participants take part in a two-day gathering at the Cheng Kar Shun Digital Hub of Jesus College, one of the most modern academic facilities at the University of Oxford. OxGen AI created the event in response to the need for substantial, multidisciplinary AI dialogue outside of commercial conference circuits, focusing on the real impact of generative AI on the economy, society, and ethics.

Who is sitting at the table?

The event brings together a broad spectrum of participants: enterprise executives looking to strategically embed AI, startup founders working on AI solutions, government officials and policymakers shaping regulations, academic researchers from leading institutions, and media representatives. Previous panel discussions covered themes such as investor perspectives on generative AI, the relationship between open- and closed-source models, AI and disinformation, privacy and data protection, and the economic impact on various sectors.

Two days of real conversations

The program consists of keynotes, plenary panel discussions, breakout sessions, and targeted networking opportunities. The intimacy of the event allows for genuine dialogue rather than one-way presentations. The location in Oxford adds an academic credibility that influences the tone of the conversations.
