About

Our group is interested in proposals related to AI, robotics, and automation in Cluster 4 calls. Aalto University is the 2nd largest university in Finland, with a very strategic positioning in the AI field - being part of the AI Factory initiative LUMI https://lumi-ai-factory.eu/about-us/lumi-aif-consortium/ - one of the first AI Factory in EU ,European Digital Innovation Hub on AI : Finnish AI Region, and we also co-maintain Finnish national Quantum Computing research infrastructure. We can bring to the table our strategic infrastructures and positioning in this area to strengthen consortia, together with our network of industry partners.
