Innovation Center for Artificial Intelligence
This article needs to be updated.(August 2023) |
The Innovation Center for Artificial Intelligence (ICAI) is a Dutch national network focused on joint technology development between academia, industry and government in the area of artificial intelligence (AI).
The initiative was launched in April 2018 and is based at Amsterdam Science Park. Current director of the ICAI is Maarten de Rijke.[1] In November 2018, ICAI announced its contribution to AINED, the first iteration of the Dutch National AI Strategy.[2]
In January 2023, Maastricht University announced the ROBUST program, led by the Innovation Center for Artificial Intelligence (ICAI) and supported by the University of Amsterdam and others. This initiative focuses on advancing research in trustworthy AI technology across various sectors, notably healthcare and energy, in the Netherlands. The program's plan includes the creation of 17 new labs and the appointment of PhD candidates, backed by a €25 million funding from the Dutch Research Council (NWO).[3]
