Call for Presentations: Milan 2025

The EDGE AI FOUNDATION Milan 2025 Program Committee is co-chaired by Martin Croome (GreenWaves Technologies) and Valeria Tomaselli (STMicroelectronics), representing two of our strategic partner companies. Together they bring expertise in edge AI, product development, and real-world deployments for a high-impact, tech-rich community driven program.

They lead the Technical Program Committee (TPC), a group of distinguished experts from industry, academia, and research institutions who collectively shape the content and direction of Milan 2025. The TPC ensures a rigorous review process, curating a high-quality program that highlights cutting-edge research, breakthrough applications, and industry-driven advancements in edge AI, tinyML, AIoT, physical AI and neuromorphic computing.

We invite industry experts, researchers, and innovators to contribute to this prestigious program and be part of the global conversation shaping the future of edge AI.

This is an in-person event (no streaming or pre-recorded presentations).
