Welcome to participate in a workshop where we will present ongoing local and national efforts to build competence in artificial intelligence (AI) in society, and to accelerate collaborations across academia and society to increase knowledge and innovation relating to AI. A new project office for supporting collaborations relating to AI across academia and public and private organisations will be introduced, and we are also happy to present the most recent employed Professor on AI, Diego Calvanese, recruited as part of the massive efforts on AI at Umeå University.
