AI & Material Science – 25-26 September 2025 (Ljubljana, Slovenia)
We are pleased to invite you to submit an abstract to the AI for Materials track, taking place in Ljubljana from September 25 to 26, 2025. The event is co-organized by the “European Materials Informatics Network” and the “Data-driven Applications towards the Engineering of functional Materials: an Open Network”, under the auspices of the European Cooperation in Science and Technology funding organisation.
Our event aims to bring together scientists, innovators, start-ups, and industry leaders to explore the state of the art and latest breakthroughs in artificial intelligence for materials discovery. Discussions will focus on identifying current limitations, overcoming bottlenecks, and fostering an open, synergic ecosystem for AI-driven materials research in Europe – where academia, large enterprises, start-ups, and scale-ups thrive together.
The EUMINE COST Action CA22143 and DAEMON COST Action CA22154 act as a co-organizer of the event. COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a funding agency for research and innovation networks. Our Actions help connect research initiatives across Europe and enable scientists to grow their ideas by sharing them with their peers. This boosts their research, career and innovation.
