The Future of AI Governance Is Being Shaped in Cities

Will your city have a seat at the table? 🌏

We are honored to announce the 2026 MWC Shanghai: Global Digital City Partnership Program, taking place from
21–27 June 2026 in Shanghai.

Organized by GSMA, the World Internet Conference (WIC), and the
Global AI Innovation and Cooperation Association (GAIA) — with
UNIDO, GSLDC, and partners as strategic and academic collaborators — this program serves as a high-level platform where policy, knowledge, and technical expertise converge.

Why Join Us?

• High-Level Dialogue: Engage directly in global AI governance discussions alongside ministers, mayors, industry leaders, and international experts.
• Strategic Matchmaking: Connect with multilateral development banks, including the World Bank, AIIB, and NDB, to align financing opportunities with your city’s digital transformation goals.
• Knowledge Exchange: Access evidence-based smart city toolkits, policy frameworks, and proven digital infrastructure cases from leading digital nations.

With limited delegation spots available, this program is ideal for city leaders, digital ministers, and innovation policymakers committed to advancing sustainable digital transformation.

Shanghai 2026 — where digital city futures are shaped.
