Where Education Meets
Artificial Intelligence

The Buffalo AI Education Summit brings together K–12 teachers, higher education faculty, school administrators, and edtech innovators for a day of hands-on learning, inspiring talks, and real-world strategies.

We believe AI should amplify human potential — not replace it. Our summit is designed to cut through the hype, deliver practical tools, and build a community of practice where educators support each other in navigating the AI-transformed classroom.
