Russell

When the world needs to understand artificial intelligence, this is the person it turns to. Not a futurist. Not a commentator. The scientist the field itself is built on.

01Built into the AI you use

The AI the world already uses was built on his work.

Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach - the textbook he wrote with Peter Norvig - is the book the field learned from. Nearly every engineer building today's AI studied it first.

Google

His co-author, Peter Norvig, was Google's longtime Director of Research. The intelligent-agent framework their book defined is still how the field describes what an AI system is.

Tesla

Self-driving runs on neural networks, probabilistic reasoning and reinforcement learning - the core methods a generation of engineers first studied in his book.

Anthropic

Today's frontier models, Claude included, are built by people who trained on his textbook - and the alignment problem he did so much to define is now central to how they are made safe.

Before they built the future, they learned it from him.

02Why it has to be him

When the world needs to understand artificial intelligence, this is the person it turns to. Not a futurist or a commentator, but the scientist the field itself is built on.

04Why this matters

“Do not do it for your brand alone - do it to inform people about what comes next.”

This is bigger than sponsorship.

It is a chance to matter.

AI will reshape every company, classroom and government in the years ahead, and faster than almost anyone expects. Stuart J. Russell is one of the very few who can help people truly see it. For one day, Copenhagen becomes where that understanding begins, and the partners who make it happen are remembered as the ones who helped Denmark get ready.

05How you stand beside it

Own the day. Own a room. Be part of it. Or just support it.

Every partnership does two things at once: it puts your business beside the most trusted voice in AI, and gives you a real hand in bringing this moment to Denmark. Each tier is category-exclusive and shaped with you.

Be the first to hear how to be part of this big day

Partnership details are being finalized. Leave your mark on Copenhagen's most important AI moment.
