Arctic AI Summit in Kirkenes 20–22 October 2026

Arctic AI is happening — are you in? The very first Arctic AI Summit is coming to Kirkenes, bringing together innovators, creatives, and AI projects from across the Nordics and the North Atlantic. Co-located with ACES 2026 and part of the Interreg Aurora funded project Createch North: AI Leap initiative.

The Arctic AI Summit will connect Arctic Creatives, bridging the Aurora area with the North Atlantic region. Like ACES does, the Arctic AI Summit will have very strong practical focus. We hope you will meet amazing people, learn new things, and hopefully implement some of the insights into your business operations. And if you are working in another AI-focused cross-border project, don’t miss this opportunity to connect with others and showcase your results. Join us in Kirkenes 🇳🇴 for an exciting week of activities with the main ones taking place between 20-22 October 2026. As we have promised, there will be a lot more happening this year as ACES grows but the core will remain, benefiting the Arctic AI Summit as well: – focus on practical use cases – connecting the Nordic Arctic region – strong international presence – delegation bus from Northern Finland – memorable experience A lot more is going to be published so stay tuned. For now, mark your calendars: 20-22 October 2026 Kirkenes, Norway One ticket, memorable experience!
