The Industry Day is meant to provide companies interested in Computational Intelligence applications (either as solution providers or as adopters) with:

• Speakers: branding of their own products to a large audience; opportunity to hire the best and brightest students coming up within CI;
• Start-ups: opportunity to meet with larger companies who may want to purchase their goods/services or their company; opportunity to pitch new ideas to Venture Capitalist;
• Venture capital: opportunity to screen great ideas coming from CIS for investment opportunity;
• Small companies: opportunity to advertise their products, engage with new customers and/or new prospective employees;
• Large companies: opportunity to hire the best possible ML/AI researchers and programmers and showcase their future direction in this area.
• AI/ML Researchers: opportunity to bridge the gap between research and production systems for the benefit of both sides.

The Industry day will focus on presentations, demos, events from companies, covering a wide range of sectors and technologies.
The day will offer to industrial partners and researchers a view of the applications that are being developed using Computational Intelligence.

The program will include a Visionary Keynote speaker on AI/CI future, scientific special sessions devoted to industrial applications (CI Approaches for Industry 4.0 and CI for Metals Science and Technology), industry presentations, focused panels,  trade-show floor & multiple networking opportunities. Breakout rooms will be available for Startup pitches and VCs.
