FPT France makes an impression in the World AI Cannes Festival 2023
With 17 members from FPT France, QAI, AIC, DXG, and MCP, FSOFT is participating in the World AI Cannes Festival 2023 for the first time with a full complement of Data/AI professionals and resources. More than 3,000 enterprises and 15,000 technology experts attended this conference, which helped to validate FSOFT’s capabilities and position in the AI & Digital Transformation Solution market in particular as well as Vietnamese intelligence more broadly.
More than 100 speakers from around the world are present at the WAICF, a sizable, historic international AI conference that features eminent academics like Yann Lecun, Vice President and Chief AI Scientist of META AI, Michael Bronstein, Deepmind Professor of AI and Head of Graph Learning at the University of Oxford, Hiroaki Kitano, CEO of SONY AI, and Seth Dobrin, CAIO IBM. More than 3,000 large and small enterprises from around the world, including Canon, Renault, Bosch, IBM, HP, and Amadeus, as well as more than 300 top AI/Data professionals attended this summit, bringing the total number of attendees to as many as 15,000 people.
Mr. Nguyen Xuan Phong, Director of Artificial Intelligence at FSOFT and Dr. Kai Yang, Deputy Director of Production at LandingAI presented at the event about the importance of focusing on data when developing AI models, such as Knowledge-Driven, Data-Centric Methods for Practical AI Applications, Usecase: AI for Manufacturing. FSOFT has developed hundreds of AI/ML projects for clients and has learned that for the deployment of AI/ML to be successful, a focus on data is required. FSOFT’s focus is therefore on developing high-quality data sources rather than investing a lot of resources in enhancing AI models.
After that, Mr. Nguyen Thanh Long, a principal data scientist at QAI, spoke about akaCam, the winning entry for iCave 2022’s runner-up prize. The audience listened intently to the talk.
Additionally, the deployment strategist at FSOFT, Mr. Fabien Roudier, delivered a keynote with the subtitle “DX Garage: A framework for managing the digital transformation journey.” In particular, Mr. Fabien has provided a feasible roadmap to deploy Cloud and Big Data, assisting in the acceleration of the Enterprise Digital Transformation process as a specialist in the field of Design Thinking. The DX Garage approach was created by FSOFT to address the issue of enabling Digital Transformation, generating the minimum viable product (MVP) that adds value for customers, as well as improving operational efficiency and saving costs.
Along with IBM, HP – Intel, AMD, and Hewlett Packard, FSOFT is pleased to be the event’s Gold Sponsor at this WAICF. It can be said that this is not only a chance for FSOFT experts to speak with prospective clients and business partners about AI & Digital Transformation Solutions, but it’s also a chance to affirm FSOFT’s position and capabilities in particular, as well as those of Vietnam more broadly, on the global technology scene. This event is also a component of FPT France’s “Territory Expansion” plan, which entails “taking the countryside to encircle the city” in order to increase market penetration in the southern Côte d’Azur, known as the French Silicon Valley.
