2025 Deloitte AI Forum

presented by the Deloitte AI Institute™

27-28 October 2025

1 Deloitte Way & In-person

This year’s AI Forum was all about the vibes

AI gives off many different vibes. Vibes that grab your attention, spark new ideas, and give the status quo a good and hearty shake. They can reshape industries, reinvent business models, and open doors of opportunity you never knew were there.

At this year’s AI Forum, leaders across business and government came together to discuss topics like Agentic AI, Edge AI, and Physical AI. All with a focus on real-world applications, and all with the goal of turning powerful AI vibes into tangible AI value . So, let’s embrace the vibes that disrupt convention. After all, those who challenge everything just might change everything, too.
