I loved how the event provided a platform for so many AI hardware products that ranged from big, well-established players to many startups that showcased their work to a large audience. It really helps for future innovations to have a stage to present and make their case.  I believe this event can really become a unique venue for startup innovation where new ideas in hardware design meets challenging AI needs for different applications.  It is focused enough to keep it attractive for the best to come here and know the pulse of the emerging industry.

Rich presentations, great discussions, smooth event execution, and some of the most valuable networking opportunities I've had all year!

Senior Director of R&D, Siemens EDA

This is a single event that attracts all the top thought leaders and practitioners who contribute to the advancement of AI related technologies. From an EDA perspective we get to hear the challenges of building software to optimize the HW architectures and from the HW the challenges of building designs that are fast, compact, and thrifty with power. There are many compelling AI innovations being discussed and they are all connected.
