Driving business models and solutions with Edge AI

By Juan

On 15 July 2025, we invite you to participate in an event organised by dAIEDGE, one of the projects in which we are actively involved. During the event, the dAIEDGE project will be presented, along with its use cases and virtual laboratory, its open calls (results of the first two, and presentation of the third and final call). We will also have the participation of several European projects within the AI NoE network.

In addition, the AIR Institute will not only participate through dAIEDGE; our NOUS project will also play a prominent role, thanks to the participation of Guillermo González Cordero, who will present collaborative and personalised models at the Edge, through the enablement of intelligent and personalised models that learn collaboratively.

This is a conference dedicated to exploring the opportunities and impact of Edge AI for the development of business projects and technological solutions. The event, which will be held in a hybrid format (in-person and online), will take place in the Presentation Room of the R&D&I Building at the University of Salamanca, from 10:00 to 17:00.

This initiative is aimed at professionals, researchers, entrepreneurs and students interested in innovation with distributed artificial intelligence technologies.

The conference programme combines technical presentations, real-life use cases, information sessions on funding opportunities, networking spaces and a hackathon focused on the practical application of the knowledge acquired.

  • 10:00 - 10:25 | dAIEDGE: Network of excellence for distributed, reliable and scalable AI at the edge
  • 10:30 - 10:55 | Federated learning in NOUS: collaborative and personalised models at the edge
  • 11:30 - 12:30 | dAIEDGE use cases:
    • Satellite processing with Edge AI
    • Smart warehouses
    • dAIEDGE-VLab: experimentation environment without the need for physical hardware
  • 12:30 - 13:00 | Presentation of AI NoE Community: Advances and opportunities in European networks of excellence in AI
  • 1:00 p.m. - 1:25 p.m. | Open calls for funding: up to €60,000 for selected proposals

In addition, there will be spaces dedicated to networking during coffee breaks (11:00 a.m. - 12:25 p.m.) and lunch (1:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.), encouraging connections between attendees and the creation of new collaborations.

Hackathon: practical application of knowledge
In the afternoon, starting at 3 p.m., a hackathon will be held in which participants will present their ideas through an elevator pitch. The activity will consist of forming work teams and developing a solution based on Edge AI, concluding with a voting session and the presentation of official certificates of participation by the University of Salamanca.

The winning team will receive special recognition and an additional reward.

Registration and certificates
Participation is free, with prior registration through this link. All attendees will receive an official certificate from the University of Salamanca.
