Convened by the American Jewish Congress in partnership with Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the American Council for World Jewry, the International Mayors Conference brings together mayors from around the world for an immersive experience at the intersection of science and technology, artificial intelligence, urban innovation, and global collaboration.
Each Conference connects participants directly with leading technology companies, entrepreneurs, academics, policymakers, and innovators whose work is already transforming transportation, public safety, healthcare, infrastructure, cybersecurity, and city governance — offering practical ideas and partnerships that can immediately improve the lives of citizens back home.
Over the years, the Conference has brought together city leaders from across the globe — including New York, Miami, Montreal, Monrovia, Buenos Aires, Kyiv, Addis Ababa, Taipei, and Prague. Alumni of the Conference have gone on to serve as Presidents and Prime Ministers, including President William Lai of Taiwan, President Mauricio Macri of Argentina, Prime Minister Matteo Renzi of Italy, President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador, and President Nasry Asfura of Honduras. This legacy reflects the Conference’s unique role in connecting leaders whose decisions shape cities, countries, and global partnerships.
As we look ahead to the 35th edition of the International Mayors Conference, we are preparing a new gathering that will build on this legacy under the forward-looking theme: “Tech & AI: Empowering the Cities of Tomorrow.”
This is an exclusive, invitation-only conference. Participation is intentionally limited to foster meaningful exchange, substantive dialogue, and lasting relationships among peers.
