Join Partnership on AI, Code for Africa, and BSR for an evening mixer bringing together the responsible AI community on May 7th at RightsCon 2026!
This cocktail reception is a space for researchers, civil society advocates, technologists, policymakers, and practitioners to connect beyond the formal conference setting to continue the important discussions sparked throughout the day.
In the relaxed atmosphere of a local venue near the conference venue of MICC, participants will have the opportunity to:
- Network with peers working at the intersection of AI, human rights, and global governance
- Build meaningful connections across sectors, disciplines, and geographies
- Engage with PAI & Partners to explore opportunities for collaboration within the responsible AI ecosystem
Whether you're working on AI policy, media freedom, community-centered technology practices, or emerging questions around AI agents and sensitive domains, this mixer offers an informal space to exchange ideas over drinks and light bites.
Open to all RightsCon 2026 attendees, PAI partners and beyond. This event is intentionally in-person only with no virtual component. Space is limited to ensure quality interactions, so registration is required. Please note that by registering you consent to being photographed at the event.
