The 2025 MIT Mongolia Symposium invites participants to explore how artificial intelligence can be applied thoughtfully to drive smarter decision-making, more adaptive organizations, and resilient industrial systems. This program focuses on frameworks and strategies that prioritize critical thinking, system dynamics, and organizational learning over speed of adoption. Sessions will examine how aligning AI with real-world operational contexts enables more effective implementation, and how well-crafted prompts can surface blind spots, outdated workflows, and new possibilities for collaboration and performance. Rather than treating prompting as a technical skill or adoption as a purely technological challenge, the symposium emphasizes AI as a catalyst for deeper reflection, better questions, and more intentional futures.

Discover how global tensions and trade shifts are reshaping innovation ecosystems—and learn how to turn geopolitical challenges into strategic opportunities for startups and global companies alike. Don’t miss this chance to hear from Fiona Murray and Phil Budden on navigating innovation in an uncertain world.

MIT Startup Exchange is convening a new installment of Demo Day on Wednesday, September 17 (12 PM – 1:15 PM ET). The event will feature several exciting industry-ready startups in brief lightning talks and Q&A. Breakout rooms will follow at the end of the event.

This event is for ILP members.

MIT Data Center Day will be a high-energy, insight-rich forum focused on the real-world challenges of building next-generation compute infrastructure. MIT faculty and researchers will share practical strategies on topics ranging from AI workloads and energy integration to modular design and sustainability.

The rise of AI and a new relationship with knowledge are unlocking powerful tools for creativity, productivity, and human well-being—long-imagined capabilities now arriving at unprecedented speed. At the same time, we face growing challenges: geopolitical tensions, disrupted supply chains, demographic shifts, and accelerating climate impacts. This symposium will convene MIT faculty, industry leaders, and government stakeholders to explore the technologies driving this change and how we can respond with purpose and resilience.

In a year marked by rapid technological change, global market shifts, and urgent climate challenges, MIT serves as a hub for collaborative thinking and meaningful dialogue across sectors. This November, join leading experts at MIT’s flagship event to explore breakthroughs in AI, energy, life sciences, supply chains, space, and more through keynotes, technical sessions, startup showcases, and dynamic discussions.
