Hibridni događaj
Organizers:
MIPRO and CroAi
Forum Purpose:
To operationalise the European AI and HPC strategy by connecting policy intent, digital infrastructure, industrial deployment, and economic impact, with a strong focus on Anorganic Intelligence, systemic AI adoption, HPC integration, and regulatory alignment.
The Economic AI and HPC Forum is positioned as a strategic flagship dialogue organised by MIPRO and CroAI, complementing MIPRO's 17 ICT scientific conferences (more than 400 papers) by focusing on:
- transition towards Anorganic Intelligence,
- infrastructure development,
- Enterprise AI Readiness Proactivity (Agentic AI) and Reactivity
(Generative AI),
- economic impact transition.
The Forum aims to present the EU’s strategic frameworks, as well as the technological and infrastructural environments for the development of a smart industry powered by AI and HPC—encompassing both large enterprises and SMEs.
It will further articulate a forward-looking vision of Anorganic Intelligence as the next evolutionary layer beyond conventional AI—enabling autonomous, system-level, and infrastructure-embedded intelligence.
Objectives:
- Position AI as a strategic economic ecosystem
- Frame AI as a driver of sovereignty and competitiveness
- Introduce the concept of Anorganic Intelligence beyond narrow AI
- Europe’s AI ambition within the Digital Decade 2030
- Strategic autonomy, resilience, and economic security
- Transition from innovation policy to industrial AI policy
- Supporting the “new industrial stack” through a robust financial ecosystem
