Trump to Headline 2025 Pennsylvania Energy, AI Summit

Former President Donald Trump will headline the inaugural Pennsylvania Energy and Innovation Summit hosted by Senator Dave McCormick at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh on July 15, 2025. The summit seeks to position Pennsylvania as a national leader in both energy production and artificial intelligence by uniting leaders from the energy, labor, AI, investment, and government sectors. Senator McCormick cited the state's large natural gas reserves, skilled workforce, and research institutions as key assets to drive technological growth and attract investment. Recent developments include Amazon's $20 billion investment to build AI and cloud data centers and a $14 billion partnership between Nippon Steel and U.S. Steel, both projected to create and protect thousands of jobs. The event is expected to bring together major industry players and policymakers to advance economic growth, energy innovation, and national security. Organizers aim for the summit to boost further investment and job creation in Pennsylvania.
