It was held aiming to stimulate and to encourage cooperation between A.I. related startups with vertical domains.


The topic focused on “The Crossover of A.I. into Vertical Industries”, industry leaders from distinct fields such as the medical industry, information communication technology industry and venture capitalists joined the panel. These professionals and business leaders shared their experiences in integrating A.I. technology into vertical industries.

During the discussion, many experts had mentioned that the key to success for digital transformation is relying on domain experts to interpret data structure and process flow; for corporates to identify the areas where A.I. can assist in accelerating the production process. Thus, discover A.I. systems that are suitable for the industries’ needs and increase efficiency in operations.


These professionals were also interested in the practical experiences that the A.I. startups obtained. Experts pointed out that if these startup companies had previously worked on relevant cases, then it would be accessible for the startups to bring the A.I. system into their industries. By integrating A.I. technology with industries, it would benefit business developers on driving digital transformation and discovering new opportunities.
