For the third consecutive year Babson College has been named an education sponsor for AI World Conference and Expo 2019. The event will run October 23-25, 2019, at Seaport World Trade Center, Boston.

One of the benefits of Babson’s partnership is that students, alumni, faculty, and other members of the Babson community will receive a special $200 discount on VIP conference passes. Additionally, any Babson community remember can request a free pass to the Expo.

“I am thrilled that Babson has been invited back to AI World as an education sponsor,” said Babson Lecturer Clare Gillan. “AI World is a premium event for artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the many digital and data developments powering the fourth industrial revolution. The Babson brand will be side by side with those of digital leaders and thinkers from around the world.”

Gillan also is thrilled about the complimentary access offer for students and faculty. Although the event is held during a busy time of the academic year, Gillan is sure that the “presentations and discussions will stay with you long after the event and prove to be valuable in unexpected ways. The changes and dynamics to be discussed touch all industries and roles and raise important questions for us as individuals, educators, students, and industry influencers.”

The AI World program promises to “deliver a comprehensive spectrum of content, networking, and business development opportunities, all designed to help you cut through the hype and navigate through the complex landscape of AI business solutions.”

What’s new and different? This year’s event will feature a significant expansion of content coverage, including these new topics: AI in Customer Analytics, AI and Cybersecurity, and AI for Business Leaders.
