JANA KOŠECKÁ - AUTHORITY IN AI Slovak world-class scientific capacity in the field of computer vision Brief introduction to the topic INTRODUCTORY DISCUSSION The future of industry is digital – and the role of the state is to be its accelerator. Supporting innovation through grants, tax breaks and investments in people and education is key. Only in this way can we create an environment where companies will grow faster, innovate more boldly and compete globally. Digital transformation is not an option, but a necessity – and the state should be a partner that moves it forward. VLADIMÍR ŠIMOŇÁK, State Secretary of the Ministry of Economy of the Slovak Republic ROBERT ŠIMONČIČ, Director General of the Slovak Investment and Trade Development Agency LENKA SLUKOVÁ, Executive Director of TECHNODAT BRANISLAV STRAKA, Member of the Board of Directors of ČSOB Moderator and expert guarantor: PETER RUSIŇÁK
We are experiencing the so-called "green" transition in the automotive industry, a regulated transition to electromobility. However, in parallel with this transition, another one is taking place - a revolution in the automotive industry, namely a digital one. This mainly includes the software factor as a basic defining element of new vehicles, which enables deeper and broader integration of various functions, including the so-called autonomous driving. Artificial intelligence and its use in both the industrial process and the product itself - the car - is becoming an equally important component. This digital revolution brings with it a number of challenges, opportunities, but also questions and potential risks. For the first time since the creation of the car, we have to talk about cybersecurity in connection with it. The integration of software with hardware itself is also a challenge, and many others. Do Slovak companies, large, medium, small and start-ups, have the opportunity to join this bandwagon? How? In what? What are the implications and possible impacts of this revolution in the automotive industry? What do we lack in Slovakia to fully utilize the potential of this revolution? And conversely, what are the best conditions for utilizing it? Is the state also prepared for this revolution? How does it want to limit its risks and utilize its opportunities?

Introducing technological innovations (AI) into corporate processes, including the space industry. KRISTIÁN ONDÁČ, SARIO / Slovak Space Office Using AI in the space industry. PATRIK VEĽKÝ, M2M Solutions Space is an extreme environment that requires precision, reliability and autonomy - exactly the same capabilities that we need in warehouses. The lecture will show how technologies developed for space missions with AI support bring new possibilities for automation and efficient management of warehouse operations on Earth. MILAN OLEJÁR, DHL In this paper, we will present how DHL Express is introducing automated solutions in customs processes to increase efficiency and reduce errors. We will focus on the possibilities of using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in classifying goods, detecting risks or processing documentation. We will also present our plans for further development of technologies and their benefits for the customer and logistics as a whole. MATEJ HLIVA, M2M Solutions By implementing innovative solutions, companies respond to growing market demands and provide faster and more reliable services. Vision systems and AI bring precision and autonomy to logistics processes, while the advent of humanoid robots opens a new chapter in warehouse robotization.
