DESCRIPTION:About the Forum\nAs UNIDO celebrates 60 years of advancing in
 clusive and sustainable industrial development\, the UNIDO Global Alliance
  on AI for Industry and Manufacturing (AIM Global)  invites you to join t
 he AIM Global Action Forum 2026\, UNIDO's flagship global event on AI and 
 industrial transformation.\nArtificial intelligence is reshaping industrie
 s faster than any technological transformation in history. While AI has th
 e potential to significantly increase productivity\, strengthen supply cha
 ins\, accelerate innovation\, and unlock new economic opportunities\, its 
 benefits risk being unevenly distributed. Early adopters of AI - both coun
 tries and companies - stand to capture disproportionate benefits\, while t
 hose lacking infrastructure\, talent pipelines\, or capital risk being lef
 t further behind.\nAt a time when the international community is advancing
  global AI governance and digital cooperation agendas\, the Forum will ex
 plore how global commitments can move from dialogue to implementation\, su
 pporting inclusive industrial transformation and sustainable development.\
 nGuiding Question: How can global AI commitments be translated into pract
 ical solutions that strengthen industries in developing and least develope
 d economies\, empower people\, and deliver sustainable development outcome
 s for all?\nSince its launch\, the AIM Global Alliance has united over 500
  members across 70 countries and is now entering its next phase\, moving 
 from alliance-building to implementation. The Forum will showcase practica
 l AI solutions and support countries in deploying AI to strengthen industr
 ial competitiveness\, climate resilience\, sustainable production\, workfo
 rce skills\, and inclusive economic growth.\nBringing together Member Stat
 es\, industry leaders\, startups\, investors\, academia\, and development 
 partners\, the Forum will serve as a platform for high-level dialogue\, te
 chnical exchange\, partnership-building\, and investment mobilization to h
 elp translate AI ambitions into practical industrial outcomes.\n\nhttps://
