What this list does not tell you
- Where anyone is based. Vienna is the city of the event, never of the person. We hold no address, and nobody here is being described as local.
- How to reach them. No contact details are held. The agenda link is the route.
- Everyone who qualifies. This is a seed, not a census: absence is not evidence that someone has not spoken in Vienna.
- Anything about talks still to come. Only past, published sessions are recorded — there is no upcoming schedule here.
Questions about booking a speaker in Vienna
- How many AI speakers have spoken in Vienna?
- 72, across 3 conferences we hold agendas for. That is the number with a checkable record, not an estimate, and it grows when we index another Vienna conference, not when more people sign up.
- Which conferences do they come from?
- TEDAI Vienna 2026, TEDAI Vienna 2025, TEDAI Vienna 2024. Each one links to its own page, and from there to the conference's published agenda.
- How do you know they actually spoke?
- Because the conference published it. 74 of the 74 talk records on this page carry the session title exactly as the agenda printed it. Nobody self-reported and nobody paid to be here.
- Are these speakers based in Vienna?
- Not necessarily, and we do not claim it. The city belongs to the event, not the person. This page answers who has taken a stage in Vienna, which is the question that matters when you are booking one there.
- What do they speak about?
- Most represented on this page: AI research, Generative AI, AI ethics, Responsible AI, AI policy, AI product. Topics come from the talks themselves, not from a profile someone filled in.
- Are these international keynote speakers?
- Yes. The speakers listed here took keynote and practitioner stages at major international technology and AI conferences in Vienna (TEDAI Vienna 2026, TEDAI Vienna 2025, TEDAI Vienna 2024). Each listing proves their stage appearance with a direct link to the published conference agenda.
- Can I get their contact details or fee?
- No. We hold neither. Every entry links to the agenda page it came from, and that link is the route. It is also the honest limit of what a directory built from public agendas can tell you.
