Welcome to SAIL 2024 

The annual SAIL Summit allows significant interactions, discussions, and connections among institutes’ researchers and staff. All institute collaborators will benefit by bringing key leadership at primary and sub-awardee sites and providing opportunities to showcase their research, make connections, ask questions, and share best practices and concerns. The 25 AI institutes, primarily funded by the NSF and USDA-NIFA, carry out a broad spectrum of research in critically important areas of US competitiveness, ranging from food security, public safety, education, weather, and myriad other targets. 


The SAIL Summit is organized by AIVO – the AI Institutes Virtual Organization.
