Youth Summit

The 19th Asia-Pacific Conference on Giftedness (APCG)

📖 GenAI Youth Summit 2026

7–11 February 2026
Youth aged 12–15 years old
5 Days

The GenAI Youth Summit 2026 is a 5-day immersive learning journey for students aged 12–15 from across the Asia-Pacific and GCC regions, designed to spark the minds and values of tomorrow’s innovators

With the theme “GenAI: The Next Generation of Thinkers,” the summit invites youth to explore how Artificial Intelligence intersects with memory, ethics, nature, and culture—guided by the transformative Ultima Memoria (UM) method.

From building AI models and storytelling with data, to decoding ancient inventions and solving local problems through logic-based challenges, students will dive into hands-on projects that blend cognitive science, Arab innovation, and future thinking.

Across five dynamic days, participants will reflect deeply, collaborate creatively, and emerge with the tools—and mindset—to shape technology that serves humanity.
