The Computational Foundry at Swansea University’s Bay Campus will host a four-day event on Technology, Creativity, and the Digital Economy in September. The exhibition will explore how artificial intelligence influences creativity and vice versa. One day is dedicated to school outreach, and another to business outreach. It is my pleasure to invite you and your colleagues to attend this event. We are passionate about the opportunities of AI and would be delighted to welcome representatives of your organisation to AISBX. 

More than ever before in the history of AI, we feel there is a need to start a dialogue between businesses, academia, and society, so seize the opportunity and engage with a vibrant AI community brought to you by the world’s oldest AI Society: AISB. We are happy to discuss the possibility of active participation on a panel or with a small stand. Please find dates and other information below. Further promotional materials will become available in due course.
