How to Build Vision Data Agents with Tools, Skills and MCP

⌖ Santiago

Hosted by University of Notre Dame / Universidad de los Andes

RISE AI Latin America Summit brings academia, industry and government to Santiago on 20–21 October 2026 to advance responsible AI across the region. Co-created by Universidad de los Andes and the University of Notre Dame, in partnership with institutions across Latin America, this two-day conference focuses on a defining question: how should AI be built, governed and shared so that it serves communities and the common good? It offers a regional forum for perspectives that can influence both Latin American priorities and the wider global conversation. The RISE AI framework The programme is organised around four connected principles: - Responsible: establishing accountability throughout the AI lifecycle, from data and model training to deployment and use, while aligning systems with human values and community needs. - Inclusive: reflecting different communities, languages, cultures, disciplines and lived experiences,and giving people affected by AI meaningful opportunities to shape it. - Safe: creating reliable, secure and robust systems that actively reduce harm, prevent misuse and address unintended consequences. - Empowering: using AI to expand human capability, strengthen communities, improve access to opportunity and augment rather than diminish human agency. These principles provide a practical basis for discussing innovation, governance and institutional change in a region where questions of access, sustainability and development are already urgent realities. Themes and perspectives The summit will convene contributors from universities, companies and public institutions across three highlighted tracks: - Education: skills development and institutional transformation - Health & Biotech: innovation spanning health and engineering - Business: AI adoption and governance models The wider context includes Latin America’s research capabilities, entrepreneurial momentum and public-sector demand. Attendees can expect a cross-sector conversation that connects technical progress with accountability, social impact and the realities of implementation. The event page also includes a call for abstracts, creating an avenue for relevant work to contribute to the summit discussion. Who should attend?… Register for this event

⌖ Berlin

Explore sustainable AI factories, sovereign European infrastructure and energy-efficient compute with Polarise at GTC Berlin, 20–22 October 2026. Polarise will exhibit at GTC Berlin 2026 in Berlin, presenting its approach to building the infrastructure behind responsible, high-performance AI services. Running from 20 to 22 October 2026, the event offers an opportunity to meet the Polarise team and discuss how sustainable digital infrastructure can support ambitious AI projects without losing sight of data sovereignty or environmental responsibility. What Polarise will showcase The company’s presence will centre on AI Factories backed by a first generation of sustainable digital infrastructure. Visitors can explore four connected areas: - AI Factories and the infrastructure required to deliver modern AI services - European AI sovereignty solutions - Green AI compute optimisation - More energy-efficient approaches to running AI workloads Together, these themes address a practical challenge for organisations adopting AI at scale: how to secure the computing capacity they need while retaining control over data and reducing the environmental impact of intensive workloads. Polarise positions its infrastructure as a foundation for responsible AI development, combining technical capability with European sovereignty and sustainability priorities. Who should visit the booth? Polarise’s exhibition will be particularly relevant to organisations evaluating AI infrastructure, teams delivering AI-powered services, and potential partners interested in sovereign or energy-conscious compute. It should also appeal to decision-makers exploring how infrastructure choices affect performance, data governance and environmental goals. The format is centred on the exhibition booth and pre-arranged conversations rather than a published talk or workshop programme. Attendees can schedule dedicated time with the Polarise team to explore partnership opportunities and discuss how its infrastructure could support the delivery of cutting-edge AI services. The booth number has not yet been announced. For a focused conversation during the event, book a meetup with the Polarise team at the booth.… Register for this event
