We are most excited to announce the AE Summer Summit on Fundamental
Challenges for AI <https://bit.ly/summer_summit_ai>. Sainsbury-Wellcome
Centre, London, July 30th.


This is a day of keynote talks and panels by leading AI researchers on what
the open problems for ML/AI development are, and promising scientific and
engineering strategies for solving them. We would love to see members of
this community there, and so have issued a discount code for 20% reduction
in prices: AESUMMER <https://bit.ly/summer_summit_ai>.

We invite speakers and representatives from Academia, Tech, FROs /
nonprofits, Start-up, and VCs / Funders. By soliciting answers and
discussions from scientists and leaders at these different groups we hope
to also examine what their different roles will be in the next period of AI
research, and to foster the sharing of research.


Full details can be found at www.algopreneurship.org.


This should be an exciting and productive day, and we have made
lower-priced tickets  available for students and early-stage researchers.
Lunch and a reception will be provided.


We look forward to seeing some of you there, and please feel free to share
news about the event on social media.
