"Innopolis Digital Days" has been held since 2021. Over five years, the event has attracted more than 15,000 participants from 30 countries.
This year, the forum drew 5,871 attendees from six countries and 120 Russian cities. The main theme was the application of AI in education and science.
Discussions at the plenary session involved Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko, Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov, Minister of Science and Higher Education Valery Falkov, Head of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov, and other experts.
Forty pilot AI projects were showcased at the forum's exhibition. Innopolis University presented a prototype of an interactive AI textbook for schoolchildren. The technology is currently being piloted at Innopolis College and is slated for future rollout in schools across Tatarstan and the Nizhny Novgorod region.
Innopolis University also demonstrated interim results in the development of an AI assistant for chemists; the system analyzes mass spectra and determines compound formulas with approximately 80% accuracy.
A youth program was held at the forum for the first time, with 480 students participating in job fairs, workshops, and tournaments.
The IT university signed an agreement with the Phystech-School Development Fund and MEPhI (National Research Nuclear University). The partners plan to establish joint scientific working groups and interdisciplinary research laboratories, as well as develop technoparks and testing grounds.
