Next Frontier AI – Virtual Vision Desks
About this event
Next Frontier AI is Europe’s most radical initiative for genuine technological independence in AI.
***Disclaimer: ***The link for booking a virtual vision desk slot will be shared once your application has been approved.
We’re creating the conditions for Europe to discover and define the next frontier in AI — not by catching up, but by leaping forward with entirely new paradigms. Through massive funding (initially €125 million, non-dilutive), radical technological freedom, and a foundation of European values, we’re establishing the environment to build three new Frontier AI Labs for research and deployment in Europe. This is your opportunity to join this challenge.
We coordinate a European coalition with a unique mandate: deploy public money to pursue breakthroughs others can’t risk. Our presence in Warsaw joins a growing circuit that has already convened Europe's AI community in Munich and Paris, with Zurich and Amsterdam still to come.
Next Frontier AI is run by SPRIND, Germany’s Federal Agency for Breakthrough Innovation.
What to expect in the Virtual Vision Desk?
Request a 10-minute 1:1 slot to pressure-test your frontier hypothesis before you apply. Not a pitch. Not a spotlight. Just an open table for real AI-related questions and feedback on your thinking, and an early read on whether your concept fits the challenge.
The vision desk slots will take place between May 6 and May 9 2026. Each slot will be about 10 mins long.
