TEF Full-Scale Operation Milestone Event, hosted by agrifoodTEF, will mark the half-project execution milestone of the four Testing and Experimentation Facilities (TEFs) launched by the European Commission in 2023.
What to Expect:
- A milestone event showcasing the impact of agrifoodTEF, AI-Matters, TEF-Health, CitCom.AI and CoordinaTEF
- Real-world validation of AI and robotics solutions for key sectors
- Valuable networking with EU policymakers, investors, and industry leaders
- A dedicated exhibition of TEF services for SMEs and Startups (Oct 1 full day & Oct 2 until noon)
This third milestone event, following the Copenhagen launch (2023) and Berlin showcase (2024), demonstrates the growing value of the TEFs in driving Europe’s AI leadership.
Who can attend the event?
We are especially inviting SMEs and Startups to discover how TEFs can support their AI and robotics deployment efforts under real conditions. With support from the European Commission AI Office, Member States (including MIMIT for Italy), and key ecosystem stakeholders, this event will shape a future of safe, responsible, and impactful AI in Europe.
Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of Europe’s AI and Robotics transformation!
