Global AI Conference: The 8th AI Summit Seoul & EXPO 2025

 

AI technology is advancing rapidly. As its impact spreads across all industries, the critical question is how to apply this technology and create real value.

DMK Global, organizer of major industry conferences in South Korea, announced that it will host the AI Summit Seoul & EXPO 2025 (AISE 2025) at COEX in Seoul on November 10–11, 2025.

This year’s event is co-organized with COEX. The conference will take place in the Grand Ballroom, while a large-scale exhibition (EXPO) will be held simultaneously in Hall B.

First launched in 2018, the AI Summit Seoul has grown into Korea’s largest AI-focused conference, now marking its 8th edition. It has been recognized for delivering balanced content that bridges industries, technologies, people, and organizations. Starting this year, it expands into the AI Summit Seoul & EXPO, evolving into a more comprehensive industrial knowledge platform.

The theme of AISE 2025 is “AI for Everything, Everything for AI”, highlighting not just technology itself but also how AI is reshaping the foundations of industries, societies, and organizations. A central focus will be on AI Agents, one of this year’s most important trends, with sessions covering diverse applications, industry-specific case studies, technical architectures, and innovation examples from leading global companies.

The conference will bring together global AI innovators, research institutions, policymakers, investors, and creators. Keynote speakers include:

• Richard Socher, CEO of You.com, which is evolving from an AI-based search engine into an enterprise-focused agentic full-stack AI platform.
• Luc Julia, co-creator of Apple’s Siri and author of the recent book IA génératives, pas créatives (“Generative AI, not Creative AI”).
• Seth Dobrin, IBM’s first Global CAIO (Chief AI Officer), now founder of QantmAI, a company specializing in AI strategy and governance.

In addition, speakers will include representatives from U.S.-based global tech giants, cutting-edge technology firms, and major Chinese AI companies that are rapidly emerging as challengers to U.S. dominance in the AI sector. Many domestic and international enterprises adopting AI Agents will also share practical case studies, providing valuable insights for companies considering implementation.

Alongside the conference, a large-scale EXPO will be held in COEX Hall B, offering participants hands-on experiences with diverse AI technology solutions. Exhibitor recruitment is currently underway, giving participating companies the opportunity to showcase demos and hold direct consultations with domestic and international decision-makers.

This year’s expanded workshop program will feature in-depth, hands-on courses where attendees can experience and learn about leading AI technologies and solutions from Korea and abroad.
