AI is leaving the screen and entering the real world.

Artificial Intelligence is changing the world. But the next chapter of AI won't be written on our screens.

It will be written in factories, cities, critical infrastructure and boardrooms — where every decision has real-world consequences.

On September 24 , Siemens Tech Day brings together technology leaders, industry experts, researchers and the next generation of innovators to discuss today's "hottest" topics for tech enthusiasts.

 

Ready to be part of the conversation?

Without taboos, the Tech Day promises to promote a discussion on the relevance of technology as the answer to society's challenges.

Join us at Siemens Tech Day.

Important: Registration is required to secure your place. As capacity is limited, we encourage you to register as early as possible.

This year's discussions

From AI in the boardroom to AI powering factories, infrastructure and entire industries, we'll challenge assumptions, debate real-world impact and explore the decisions that will shape the future.

Because the future of AI isn't about technology alone. It's about the choices we make.

AI vs CEO. Who's in charge?

Imagine walking into your next board meeting... Only to find out your company's new "executive" isn't human.

As AI advisors become part of strategic decision-making, how should leaders redefine authority, responsibility and trust?

We'll challenge assumptions on human leadership in machine-accelerated environments, probe the real risks of cybersecurity loopholes and surface the success stories that prove AI can be a partner and not a competitor.

What happens when AI leaves the screen and enters the real world?

We've spent years asking whether AI can think. The next question is: can we trust it to act?

We're entering an era where intelligence has hands, wheels, sensors and, most of all, autonomy. When intelligence moves into machines, factories and critical infrastructure, the questions become very different.

From robotics and digital twins to industrial AI and autonomous engineering, this panel explores the moment AI crosses the boundary between the digital and physical worlds.
