Through a carefully selected program of talks, performances, and exhibitions, attendees will have the opportunity to experience firsthand the power of art and technology to inspire and educate people across cultural and geographical boundaries. The Vine Global Impact Foundation believes that by showcasing these possibilities, MOSAIC can inspire attendees to become agents of positive change in their communities.

Distinguished Speakers and Performers

The Vine Global Impact Foundation, known for its dedication to advancing cultural diplomacy and supporting philanthropic causes worldwide, has assembled an impressive lineup of speakers, artists, and experiences for this two-day celebration.

Among the notable participants is Stephen Ibaraki, a renowned artificial intelligence (AI) expert. Another distinguished speaker is Valentino Catricalà, a scholar and curator specializing in the relationship between artists and new technologies. Catricalà’s knowledge will provide valuable insights into how art and technology can intersect in meaningful ways.

The organizers have also secured the participation of Fernando Garibay, a record producer who has worked with artists like Lady Gaga and U2. On the performance side, MOSAIC will feature artists such as Nessi Gomes, a British-Portuguese musician known for combining traditional Fado folk with contemporary British influences.

The summit will also showcase the talents of Axelle Saint-Cirel, a French mezzo-soprano who gained recognition for her performance at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris.

A Global Gathering at Royaumont Abbey

The MOSAIC summit will take place at the historic Royaumont Abbey in France. This 13th-century Cistercian abbey, now a cultural center, provides a dramatic backdrop for the discussions. “We chose this venue for its rich cultural heritage and dedication to promoting artistic and intellectual exchange,” Dunn raves.

Royaumont Abbey’s stunning architecture and peaceful surroundings will create an atmosphere conducive to thoughtful reflection and meaningful dialogue. MOSAIC attendees can explore the abbey’s beautiful gardens and historic spaces, drawing inspiration from centuries of artistic and intellectual pursuits.

The Foundation believes this setting will encourage participants to think outside their usual boundaries and imagine new possibilities for collaboration and impact.

Combining Technology and the Arts for Social Impact

The Vine Global Impact Foundation has organized panel sessions that will dive into topics such as AI and the future of the creative economy to highlight inventive ways in which technology and art can be used for social good.

Furthermore, MOSAIC will showcase real-world examples of how this intersection makes a difference. “We will feature presentations on initiatives we and our partners support, such as tech and art education programs for disadvantaged children,” explains Dunn.

These programs, implemented in collaboration with organizations like Playing for Change, show the tangible impact that can be achieved when creativity and new ideas are applied to social challenges.

Exclusive Experiences and Networking Opportunities

MOSAIC provides even more exclusive experiences for VIP attendees. The Vine Global Impact Foundation has arranged intimate networking sessions with global thought leaders, allowing participants to engage in thorough discussions and forge valuable connections. VIP attendees will also have access to cultural immersion workshops, which will provide fresh insights into the topics.

Another highlight of MOSAIC will be the gala dinner. The organizer has designed this event to unite influential figures worldwide, creating an environment where new partnerships and initiatives can take root. The gala will also include a charitable auction to benefit tech education programs.

“Attendees will definitely leave MOSAIC inspired and equipped with new ideas for inspiring positive change in their spheres of influence,” says Dunn.

Those interested in attending MOSAIC can choose from several ticket options. The Vine Global Impact Foundation offers a Saturday Experience Pass for those who wish to attend a single day of the event and a VIP Masterpiece Pass for a more thorough two-day experience.
