Z dogodkom bomo obeležili projekt SLAIF, Slovenska tovarna umetne inteligence, ki je ena najpomembnejših nacionalnih pobud Slovenije na področju umetne inteligence in visokozmogljivega računalništva. Skupna vrednost projekta je 135 milijonov evrov, sofinancirata pa ga Republika Slovenija in evropski program skupnega podjetja EuroHPC. SLAIF je del širše evropske pobude EuroHPC in eden od ključnih stebrov strategije, s katero bo Slovenija ostala pomemben igralec v digitalni preobrazbi regije.
Cilji projekta so nadaljnje oblikovanje in razvoj slovenskega ekosistema umetne inteligence in superračunalništva ter ustvarjanje okolja, v katerem bo umetna inteligenca delovala kot gonilo inovacij, konkurenčnosti in trajnostnega razvoja slovenskega gospodarstva. Želimo aktivno spodbujati sodelovanje med gospodarstvom, akademskim okoljem in raziskovalnimi ustanovami ter ustvarjati priložnosti za skupne projekte in izmenjavo znanja.
Na dogodku nas bo nagovoril predsednik vlade Republike Slovenije dr. Robert Golob, predstavniki EuroHPC, Evropske komisije ter konzorcija SLAIF. Sledila bo predstavitev projekta SLAIF ter pogovori s predstavniki drugih evropskih tovarn umetne inteligence in slovenskega gospodarstva. Dogodek bomo zaključili z družabnim srečanjem ob pogostitvi.
The event will mark the launch of SLAIF project (Slovenian AI Factory), one of Slovenia's strategic national initiatives in the fields of artificial intelligence and high-performance computing. With a total value of 135 million euros, the project is co-financed by the Republic of Slovenia and the European Commission through the EuroHPC JU. SLAIF forms part of the wider European EuroHPC initiative and is one of the key pillars of the national AI strategy, ensuring that Slovenia remains an important player in the digital transformation of the region.
The project aims to further develop the national AI and supercomputing ecosystem, creating an environment in which AI will drive innovation, competitiveness, and the sustainable development of the Slovenian economy. We aim to actively promote collaboration between industry, academia, and research institutions to create opportunities for joint projects and knowledge exchange.
The event will include addresses by the Prime Minister of the Republic of Slovenia, Dr Robert Golob; representatives of EuroHPC; the European Commission; and the SLAIF consortium. This will be followed by a presentation of the SLAIF project, and discussions with representatives of other European AI factories and Slovenian business representatives. The event will conclude with a social gathering.
