Jointly hosted by Lingnan University and the Harbin Institute of Technology, Shenzhen, and co-organised by the Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Fund Town, the 2026 Summit on AI Ethics and Governance was held on 23 October in Qianhai, Shenzhen. Themed “Shaping Responsible AI”, the Summit brought together over 200 key experts, including Chinese and international academicians, university presidents from China and abroad, and renowned AI scholars from the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation member economies, such as Australia, Mexico, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand and the US.
