The annual Benelux conferences on Artificial intelligence (BNAIC) and Machine Learning (Benelearn) will this year be organized between the 6th and 8th of November 2019 in Les Halles des Tanneurs in the center of Brussels.

The paper calls and important dates are already available on the websites http://bnaic19.brussels  and http://benelearn19.brussels , and more information will be gradually added.

BNAIC and Benelearn provide as always a unique local opportunity to show-case your expertise in AI/ML and underline your importance in the Benelux ecosystem. Participation is almost mandatory!  We are looking forward to seeing your latest breakthroughs in Brussels this November.

As a reminder, participating in this conference also makes you member of the Benelux Association for AI (http://www.bnvki.org) and the European Association for AI (http://www.eurai.org), providing additional benefits.

This year we expand the existing two-day format with an opportunity for AI/ML companies to interact with researchers.  Junior and less junior researchers will have the opportunity to talk to potential future employers and companies can demonstrate their AI/ML experiences or search for experts to help them in their new plans.  For this reason, the 6th of November 2019 will be focused on business presentations and the two other days on the academic parts (including 4 international keynotes, the famous FACTs session and different parallel sessions).  On the 7th some match-making and industry demo sessions are planned to further stimulate the interactions. More information about this special opportunity will be made available soon.

In addition, we plan to put the posters in the spotlight through the organization of poster-walks on specific topics, wherein an expert will take you on a tour.  Moreover, we will organize for the first time a best poster award, next to the well-known best paper, PhD and demo awards.

As a bonus, an AI & Arts event will be organised on the evening on the 6th of November 2019.
