The ELA AI Triangle (RWTH Aachen, KU Leuven and TU Eindhoven) and Siemens are cordially inviting all AI enthusiasts and interested partners to participate in this annual conference!

In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, artificial intelligence stands as a cornerstone of innovation and progress across industries. As the European Union endeavours to position itself as a global leader in AI, the imperative lies not only in fostering cutting-edge research, but also in effectively translating AI advancements into tangible industrial applications.

Thus, this year annual conference of the Siemens Research and Innovation Ecosystem Aachen Arc brings together experts and researchers within the new AI partnership of the tri-border region of Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands to provide an exchange platform for stakeholders to converge, collaborate, and catalyze transformative AI initiatives across diverse industrial sectors.


Key topics to be addressed include:​

  • Innovative AI Applications: Delving into the latest breakthroughs and innovative applications of AI across diverse sectors such as manufacturing, smart grids and mobility. â€‹

  • Technological Adoption and Integration: Examining the challenges and opportunities associated with the adoption and integration of AI technologies within industrial frameworks. Discussions will encompass issues such as data privacy, interoperability, scalability, and cybersecurity, elucidating best practices and strategies for seamless implementation.​

  • Collaborative Ecosystem Building: Recognizing the importance of fostering collaborative ecosystems that bridge the gap between academia, industry, and government. The conference will showcase successful partnerships and initiatives aimed at nurturing talent, fostering innovation, and promoting knowledge exchange to accelerate AI industrial valorization.​

Through keynote presentations, deep dives and networking opportunities, the conference aims to catalyze dialogue, foster collaboration, and drive actionable insights towards accelerating AI technologies within the EU industrial landscape. For the detailed agenda, click here
