The early career research consortium has provided young researchers from any subject area within AI with the opportunity to present their ideas and receive feedback at an early stage of at their scientific work. We have invited young researchers to present their research and established connections with new researchers.

The early career research consortium has also provided to discuss their research interests and career objectives with established researchers in AI and to network with other participants.
