Each industrial leap, from the steam engine to electricity, from the assembly line to the internet, reshaped how people worked, built, and connected. Today, artificial intelligence marks the next great transformation. However, unlike past technologies, AI isn’t just an instrument of progress; it’s a collaborator, a system that reasons, learns, and acts alongside us. This shift challenges a deeper question: What becomes of agency, leadership, and trust when human judgment is no longer the only intelligence at work? 

The AIT Forum 2025, hosted on Level 50 of One Canada Square, will bring together the Albanians in IT (AIT) community, UCL faculty, Albanian tech diaspora, and industry leaders to explore this frontier under the theme “AI-native entrepreneurship: Keeping human needs front and center.” 

Across three sessions: spanning agentic AI, macro and micro innovation management, and human-centered creativity, participants will connect frontier research with lived entrepreneurial experience. The forum offers a platform where academia, industry, and diaspora insights converge to shape a new understanding of innovation in the intelligent age.
