SPP Alumni Symposium 2026

Public Leadership in the Age of AI
Saturday 16 May 2026

In a world marked by increasing fragmentation on the political and economic front along with the enormous potential of Artificial Intelligence, smart public leadership is critical to harnessing the power of AI for social good. How should policymakers respond to the risks and opportunities? What is the role of public policy in this challenge?

Whilst the programme is being finalised, we are excited to announce the topics will cover AI in relation to:

  • Labour markets
  • Governance
  • Rise of AI agents

We look forward to hosting you at LSE School of Public Policy. Registrations will close at midday on Thursday 7 May.
