It's an operational bridge. Curated startup pitches. Thematic working tables on sustainable AI infrastructure, climate and energy systems, and education and health. Pre-scheduled B2B meetings. Structured follow-up mechanisms. Soft-landing pathways through the Torino Talent Gateway. The thesis we've carried from Kampala to Nairobi to Delhi to Abu Dhabi remains the same: AI that doesn't work offline, doesn't speak local languages, and doesn't keep data sovereign isn't infrastructure. It's a dependency. Turin is where that thesis meets the companies that can help scale it. @AIHub4SD | Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy | ITCILO | UNDP | City of Turin | @UNDP in Italy | UNDP Digital, AI and Innovation Hub (Accelerator Labs) | UNDP Rome Centre | CTE NEXT | Unione Industriali Torino #AIHub4SD #TurinAIHub #MatteiPlan #AI4Africa #BuildWithAfrica
