The newly formed advisory board includes more than 40 global business leaders and policymakers, such as Chairman Lee, Executive Chair Chung, Andy Jassy, CEO of Amazon, Jane Fraser, CEO of Citigroup, Hiroki Totoki, CEO of Sony Group, Henry Kravis, Co-founder of KKR, former UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, and former U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo.

This year’s inaugural event will be co-chaired by Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA; Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft; Lisa Su, CEO of AMD; Ruth Porat, President and Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of Alphabet; and Divesh Makan, Founder of ICONIQ.

The advisory board will be divided into four organizations: the “Frontier Committee,” composed of advanced technology company CEOs; the “Capital Committee,” consisting of AI infrastructure investors and financial institutions; the “Builder Committee,” focused on companies applying AI in industrial fields; and the “Founders Committee,” including founders of next-generation unicorn companies.

“Silicon Valley & The World” was established to connect Silicon Valley firms developing AI technology with leaders from a wide range of industries, government, and finance around the globe. In November, approximately 350 founders, CEOs, investors, and policymakers will gather in Silicon Valley, USA, to discuss topics such as AI, economic competitiveness, national security, energy, and the labor market.

Meanwhile, prior to the November event, Chairman Lee, Executive Chair Chung, and CEO Huang are also scheduled to meet at the “San Francisco AI Summit” to be held on July 24-25, coinciding with President Lee Jaemyung’s visit to the United States. SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won and Naver Board Chair Lee Hae-jin are also expected to attend.
