The Higher Education Artificial Intelligence Summit is an invitation-only gathering of senior academic and technology leaders hosted by the Center for Digital Education and the Center for Public Sector AI. This closed-door forum brings together institutions and industry innovators to explore the rapidly accelerating role of AI across academic, research, and operational domains.
The summit begins with a networking dinner, followed by a full day of candid, strategic dialogue. Discussions reflect the most urgent priorities facing higher education leaders as they navigate AI’s impact on campus, including:
- Institutional readiness, governance models, and responsible implementation
- Agentic AI and its potential to streamline repetitive, rules-based work
- Faculty development, instructional innovation, and academic integrity
- AI’s role in student success, engagement, and personalized support
- Research considerations, compliance, and data governance
- Emerging pilot programs, proof-of-concept initiatives, and shared best practices
This is a working session—not a conference. Council members and invited guests leave with clear insights, peer-tested strategies, and a stronger network to guide their institutions through the opportunities and responsibilities of AI adoption.
Now in its 21st year, the California Public Sector CIO Academy returns in 2026 as the premier event for developing both today’s senior technology leaders and the next generation rising in their ranks. Rooted in human-centered leadership, the Academy provides a unique environment where current and emerging leaders can sharpen the skills, insights, and resilience needed to guide organizational transformation. Against the backdrop of California’s ambitious digital initiatives, the Academy blends learning, mentorship, and collaboration, empowering leaders at every stage of their journey to shape a government that advances with purpose and innovation
