ABOUT ALEXIA STEICHEN
The world's leading AI congress in Cannes
Each February, the World AI Cannes Festival transforms the Palais des Festivals into the global hub for artificial intelligence — bringing together over 10,000 professionals, 320 international speakers and 220 exhibitors for two intensive days of strategic discussions, product demonstrations and high-value networking. I provide local event support, fixing and concierge services for international AI and tech teams attending WAICF in Cannes.
The world's leading AI congress — in Cannes.
WAICF is one of the fastest-growing professional congresses on the French Riviera. International teams from the tech, finance, healthcare and media sectors attend from across Europe, the US and Asia — many of them arriving in Cannes for the very first time. Navigating Cannes during WAICF requires local knowledge: the best restaurants near the Palais des Festivals, reliable bilingual transport, last-minute logistics and a local contact who picks up the phone. That's exactly what I provide.
You can learn more about my background and experience working with international agencies and brands here.

Why book early for WAICF
February in Cannes fills fast.
WAICF takes place in February — one of Cannes' quieter periods compared to the summer congress season, which means availability is better than during Cannes Lions or MIPIM. That said, the best restaurants, transport providers and local contacts book up quickly once the congress calendar is confirmed. Contact me 4–6 weeks before WAICF to secure the right support for your team.
