The Soph.I.A Summit, a quality meeting

The Soph.I.A Summit is one of the leading meetings for A.I. experts and brings together every year international experts from the academic world and leading companies. The event allows researchers to present their research and share their thoughts on artificial intelligence, its development and its impact on several current and future fields. Last year, due to the health situation, the third edition of this international conference was held from November 16 to 21, 2020 in 100% digital. The Université Côte d'Azur, the Communauté d'Agglomération de Sophia Antipolis and the Sophia Club Entreprises, with the support of the Alpes Maritimes department, managed to organize a high quality event with a great turnout of both speakers and the public. The conference was part of SophIA Week, a week dedicated to AI that allows different audiences (academic, economic but also citizens) to learn and share their experiences on the current and future applications of this technology.
