Outline:
With this two-part event, we aim to shift researchers and students in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence into an Entrepreneurial Mindset. With input from experts and hands-on experience, we want to highlight the chances and risks that a career as a founder and entrepreneur can hold in contrast to research.
Our Keynote speakers are AI researchers, Entrepreneurs, and Sustainable Start-up Founders. While Friday offers insights through Keynotes and Discussion, Saturday challenges participants to develop their own ideas leveraging AI to achieve a sustainable vision. At the end of the day, the groups will pitch their Start-Up ideas to our highly qualified jury from industry and university.
