The key theme of this year's event was artificial intelligence. The summit showcased the latest technologies and innovations that will impact our future lives and change the business world and society as a whole.
The Children's University was given a unique opportunity to present its activities and mission: to arouse children's interest in technical subjects through interactive exhibits. Throughout the day, groups of children from selected primary and secondary schools took turns in the Knights' Hall. Space and time was also given to gifted children from poorer backgrounds.
