It's been over two years since our last in-person EAGxSingapore conference. We are thrilled to organize this conference again — bigger and better than before! The conference will be held from the 2nd to the 3rd of September at the Singapore Management University.

The event will bring together over 250 members of the EA community to connect with each other and explore the best ways to improve the world.  We have compiled a line-up of amazing speakers covering topics in global health and well-being, AI alignment and research, animal welfare, EA entrepreneurship and more!

Travel Assistance

We are prepared to reimburse travel expenses for some attendees. Please apply for support if the cost of attending will be prohibitive. 

Priority will be given to applicants from Asia or who have not been able to attend another conference this year. 

Programme

The programmes on Friday the 2nd will run from 3 pm to 10 pm. The focus is on creating a laid-back space for participants to socialize and network. Saturday the 3rd will have full-day programming where sessions are lined up from 9am to 7pm.

Post-EAGxSingapore Unconference

EA SG will be holding our first Unconference on Sunday, September 4th! We hope this will be a fun, experimental space to break away from the traditional conference structure and focus on peer-to-peer exchange and provide a different space to connect and get to know other EAGx attendees. 

If you’re already attending EAGxSingapore, you’re automatically registered to attend, but you can also sign up to facilitate a session or help volunteer here. If you aren’t attending EAGxSingapore, you will need to apply to attend here. The deadline is Monday, August 28th at 11:59 pm Singapore Time.
