The Start-Up Pitches
Choosing AI technology can be daunting! The AI Accelerator Hub, sponsored by Taylor Vinters, provides an opportunity to really grill some of the up-and-coming vendors, ensuring that their AI solutions go beyond the hype to provide true value.
With up to 60 early-stage AI start-ups in the running, the competition promises to be fierce!
Viewing access for the AI Accelerator Hub is included in all pass types. The pitches kick off at 9.45 and run through to 13.15.
The five start-ups deemed to have the greatest potential will then be invited to the final, kicking off at 14.30, where each will be quizzed by the panel of investors, corporate leaders, and industry influencers.
