DWPS 2026

The 4th edition of the Data with Purpose Summit explored the theme “Data Visionaries: Imagining Tomorrow Today.”

Across conversations on geopolitics, security, oceans, cities, business, ethics, talent and uncertainty, the Summit examined how data is shaping the way organizations, public institutions and societies respond to increasingly complex challenges.

Through keynote speeches, roundtables, flash talks and the Dean’s Open Innovation Challenge, the program brought together different perspectives on the use of data and AI – from the impact of technology on conflict and sovereignty to the potential of data for intelligent governance, business decision-making and new forms of innovation.

The program focused on four core themes:

Power & Sovereignty – The Data War
Exploring the impact of technology, data and AI on conflict, defense, security and geopolitical power.
Territories & Oceans – Data as Anticipation
Looking at the role of data in ocean research, intelligent governance, cities and public decision-making.
Talent & Ethics – Human Skills in the AI Economy
Addressing AI, trust, human oversight, talent and skills in a changing economy.
New Generations & the Future of Societies
Featuring the Dean’s Open Innovation Challenge and a discussion on navigating uncertainty in a chaotic world.
