The 6th edition of the Canada-Italy Forum on AI promises to be an exceptional gathering of thought leaders, innovators, and key stakeholders from both Canada and Italy, aiming to showcase the transformative impact of AI on well-being across multiple dimensions.
The Forum will explore how AI, including generative AI, can enhance the well-being of individuals, businesses, cities, and regions. Discussions will cover well-being related to health, spanning preventive to therapeutic care for individuals and communities, as well as the roles of various stakeholders. Additionally, the Forum will address well-being in different contexts, from familial settings to broader environments such as neighborhoods, workplaces, cities, and territories.
The Canada-Italy Forum on AI is more than just an event; it is an ongoing initiative designed to foster connections and opportunities between innovative ecosystems in Canada and Italy. By bringing together R&D centers, start-ups, companies, clusters, and institutions, the Forum promotes collaboration, innovation, and the adoption of AI solutions that contribute to sustainable and inclusive well-being.
