About the Event
A new Forum Europe initiative, the first Artificial Intelligence Conference explored Europe's policy approach to AI and its deployment across sectors and industries.
The theme of the first edition was "Developing a European Strategy for AI". With over 200 attending delegates and 26+ speakers, the event looked at both policy and industry, to bring to life the applications and potential impact of Artificial Intelligence.
What We Did:
- European and global views on AI represented, including four nation states representatives
- Interactive format with panel debates, in-conversation interviews, tech talks and keynotes
- Inclusion of European SMEs in the programme
- High-level discussion took place in a crucial moment in the legislative cycle, leading up to the European Commission's guidelines on AI
