The AI Executive Forum is an invitation-only gathering of senior leaders focused on the near-term future of open AI. Hosted by the Linux Foundation, the half-day forum convenes leadership from member companies of LF AI foundations and projects — including the Agentic AI Foundation, PyTorch Foundation, and LF AI & Data — alongside founders and operators from AI companies working in open AI, and leading researchers and academics.
The program features thought leadership keynotes from AI leaders, State of the Union updates from projects including PyTorch, MCP, Kubernetes, and Ray, and facilitated discussions centered on timely, real-world issues facing organizations building and deploying open AI. Networking is integrated throughout the program and continues with a cocktail reception and dinner.
The forum is designed to enable shared learning across ecosystems — surfacing constraints, identifying gaps, and exploring where collaboration can meaningfully accelerate progress. By bringing together leaders from across AI foundations and projects, alongside industry and academia, the forum creates rare opportunities for collaboration and early problem-solving beyond individual silos.
