MONTRÉAL, Sept. 10, 2024 /CNW/ – Media representatives are invited to attend ALL IN, the country’s most important gathering dedicated to Canadian artificial intelligence (AI). This event is held at the Palais des congrès de Montréal from September 11 to 12, as well as virtually.
ALL IN 2024 will focus on showcasing how Canada is building an AI-powered economy, driven by the collective efforts of the AI community—from those who imagine and define AI to those who build and adopt it.
As the Country of Honor, France will showcase an inspiring ecosystem of AI startups and well-established companies like Alstom, Thales, L’Oréal and OVHcloud that are already using AI in their daily operations—some of which are currently working with Canadian AI service and product providers.
