ENFIELD Project final event – Advancing AI in Europe: From Foundations to Real-World Applications

About the Conference

This event is designed to bridge the gap between technical research and real-world deployment, gathering leading voices from academia, industry, and public policy to address the most pressing challenges and opportunities shaping the future of artificial intelligence in Europe. The programme opens with keynotes that frame both the infrastructure and resource constraints at the heart of large-scale AI deployment, and the imperative for human-centric, and regulation-aware design. Following sessions offer both technical depth and policy relevance on system robustness, green AI, data quality, explainability, and security. A dedicated track on AI literacy, workforce development, and strategic autonomy reflects the urgency of building European capacity in critical sectors, including energy and space. The event will conclude highlighting the role of European Networks of Excellence in scaling research collaboration and advances into tangible societal impact. In this respect, ENFIELD will present its strategic outcomes and roadmap which align with Europe’s broader ambitions for a competitive, responsible, and sovereign AI ecosystem.
