International technology forums are being held in Russia to address digital integration and artificial intelligence. The Global Digital Forum II, held in Moscow from October 8–10, 2026, involved participants from over 100 countries, including academics and industry leaders. During this forum, experts discussed human-centric perspectives on AI, specifically whether the primary challenge lies in a machine’s lack of human understanding.

This upcoming event is expected to host delegations from China, various Southeast Asian nations, and African countries. The agenda will cover digital government management, cybersecurity, fintech, and digital solutions for sectors such as healthcare and education, accompanied by a high-tech exhibition featuring over 300 Russian companies.
