Young AI Leaders Austria · an initiative of AI for Good · © 2026

Apply · Linz & Vienna hubs
Applications closed · next window 1 February 2027 – 31 March 2027

Lead something real. From day one.

We give young builders, researchers and communicators the room and responsibility to ship work that matters — in Linz, Vienna and in the rooms where AI is decided.

Applications closed

Don't wait for the window. Show us through action.

The next applications open on 1 February 2027 and close on 31 March 2027. Until then, join the volunteer crew: help run our events, work next to the team, and every shift goes on your record. When applications open, we email you, and the shifts appear in your application.

Who fits

Three things we look for.

The same standard every member on the Teams page was selected against.

01

Leadership & character

Initiative over titles.

You pick up unsolved problems, follow through and communicate with care. How you show up is how the community is judged.

02

Capability & drive

Curiosity that ships.

Technical depth, design and communications craft, programme execution or institutional fluency — turned into real output.

03

Reliability & fit

Presence matters.

Consistent time, reliable async follow-through and in-person participation at the hub you can reach.

No prior AI degree required. Beginners who deliver beat experts who disappear.

The path

From open seat to the wall.

Nobody becomes a member by filling out a form. You earn your seat by delivering.

Stage 01 · 1 Sep – 31 Oct · 1 Feb – 31 Mar
