Our priority is to transform the algorithms and technological solutions we develop into practical tools that will be used in industry, finance, medicine and other fields, and thus will have a positive impact on society.
We are a research center specializing in the field of artificial intelligence and digital economy. Our mission is to support the development of these technologies in Poland by creating a platform for cooperation between the academic and business communities.
We want to become the leader of innovative research in Poland and at the same time educate a new generation of scientists who will focus on the practical application of the developed algorithms, as well as on the commercialization of their achievements in various branches of the economy.
Cooperation with prestigious scientific centers abroad is also an important element of our activity. It is crucial for enriching the knowledge and experience of young researchers. Together, we can achieve much more in science and technology.
