About the event

Powering the AI Decade is an invitation-only, nonpartisan half-day policy forum. It brings together policymakers, regulators, industry leaders, investors, and experts to examine the infrastructure, energy, and policy decisions shaping America's AI future. Organized by Knowledge Networks (Regulating AI) and The American Bazaar, it focuses on who pays for the grid, who grants permission to build, and how the build-out gets financed. It is timed to the run-up to the 2027 legislative sessions.
