Shaping the Future: AI Careers, Networking, and Innovation
The gap between academic preparation and industrial reality is narrowing, yet the pace of technological change often outstrips traditional curricula. Especially with the disruptive arrival of Artificial Intelligence, the job market is transforming at an unprecedented speed. This dedicated track is designed not just to inform, but to connect the brightest young minds with the companies leading this revolution.
We invite students to look beyond traditional career paths and explore the new frontiers of the professional world. From understanding how Generative AI is reshaping workflows to mastering the ethical implications of algorithms, this track offers a comprehensive view of what it means to be a professional in 2026. Get ready to engage directly with industry leaders, ask burning questions, and participate in a hands-on collaborative workshop that will put your skills to the test.
A moderated panel discussion featuring a diverse group of professionals for each participating company: senior engineer, project manager, data scientist, tech entrepreneur, and so on. For each group, skills and experiences of each professional role are described as stories. Companies will showcase recent technological innovations, interesting research projects, new job market profiles. For each group, Q&A from students.
Speaker: TBD
A general-purpose AI workflow is introduced as a standard framework. Groups of students interact with the participating companies to develop their special-purpose AI factories: small groups of students are prearranged to sit with some professionals for informal discussion and mentorship-style conversations.
A less formal, buffet-style lunch. Round tables are used and company representatives are encouraged to sit at different tables to facilitate spontaneous conversations. Conversation starter cards are placed on each table, with topics related to the conference themes.
Students present their AI factories in an interactive way. Company representatives act as judges. Best IT innovator awards are given on the basis of an evaluation framework.
