In particular, the arena shall contribute to bridging the gap between AI research environments and AI user environments in the public and private sectors by: Lowering the threshold for industry and the public sector finding relevant research, and entering into cooperation on research and innovation. Establish and develop a network between research environments and new users. Contribute to a clearer national and international footprint of "the AI billion". The arena shall complement and scale existing initiatives. The project has two main target groups for activities and arenas that are established: AI-research environments (active research actors, including the AI-centres and relevant research initiatives etc.), advanced/ambitious AI-user environments, industry, public entities as well as other relevant social actors and decision makers.
