Agenda

17.00 Welcome & Registration Business Speaker’s Corner

17.30 Introduction to the Business Speaker’s Corner by Peter Vermeylen, Chairman CIOforum, Edwin D’Hondt, CIOforum, and Elise Descamps, Program Manager imec.istart Belgium

CIO’s are curious (anxious?) about what AI will mean for their companies in the future.
Starting with an introduction on imec.istart – who are we and what do we do – we will put 4 startups on stage that work extensively with AI tools themselves (or have an AI product). We gain insight via a ‘fireside chat’ into how they deal with AI as startups and what the consequences could be for larger companies, or even how those companies will have to adapt. The start-ups involved at the discussions are Metagem (Sean Walsh or Benjamin Miraglio), Sympl (Steven Pyck), HappyClient (Jonathan Dierckens) and Prismos (Pepijn Mores)! The moderator will likely be the CEO of Dynapps.

19.00 Closing of the event by Peter Vermeylen, Chairman CIOforum

19.00 Networking opportunity accompanied by food and drinks

21.00 End of Event
