With the (re)discovery of Artificial Intelligence, the First Edition of WAICF Looks Set to Make History.
The World AI Cannes Festival (WAICF) is the first global event dedicated exclusively to AI, to tech leaders who innovate in the field and to the economic, human and societal issues which will impact our lives in the very near future. For professionals, this event will be a chance to take stock of the current situation on their market, get to know the best experts and meet the decision-makers and executives of leading companies. On the last day of the event, the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès in Cannes will open its doors to the general public.
Two days dedicated to professionals.
On Thursday, April 14 and Friday, April 15, Cannes will be the epicenter of the global AI ecosystem.
Entrepreneurs, opinion leaders, decision-makers and experts will come together to share, exchange and discover the AI of the future. Over 250 conferences, workshops and start-up pitches will take place within the Palais des Festivals complex. The full conference program and the list of speakers can be found on the WAICF website.

The jury, the WAICF Honorary Committee made up of fourteen eminent personalities from the tech industry, has pre-selected two finalists per category, and the final will take place on Friday, April 15, 2022. The finalists will take it in turns to showcase their projects during ‘battles’, and the public will be able to vote live, electronically, to elect the winners.
