GlobalPittsburgh hosted a delegation from Kazakhstan for an International Visitor Leadership Program exchange on Promoting Strategic Artificial Intelligence Engagement. During their visit, participants met with GlobalPittsburgh leadership for a program welcome before engaging with key institutions shaping Pittsburgh’s technology landscape. At Carnegie Mellon University’s CyLab and the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center, they explored AI-driven cybersecurity, high-performance computing, and emerging research initiatives. The group also visited Hellbender Inc. to discuss responsible AI innovation in manufacturing, toured Google Pittsburgh to learn about ethical AI design and large-scale tech development, and met with the AI Strike Team to examine regional strategies positioning Pittsburgh as a global AI hub. The program included cultural exchange through home hospitality dinners with local families and concluded with the delegation’s departure for their onward travel. This project was sponsored by the U.S. Department of State and administered by Meridian International Center with local programming by GlobalPittsburgh.
