Scale AI to Launch a Call for Projects Focused on Generative Artificial Intelligence

Montréal, Canada - September 11, 2024

Scale AI, Canada’s global AI innovation cluster, announced today the launch of an ambitious call for projects to support initiatives based on generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) for the benefit of Canadian industries. This announcement was made at ALL IN, the most important event dedicated to Canadian AI.

The call for projects, which will begin on September 26th, aims to accelerate the adoption and integration of Gen AI solutions to improve operational productivity in the value chains of Canadian companies, with specific financial support. As part of this initiative, Scale AI is targeting a total commitment of $5 million for projects of a value of more than $750,000 each.

Julien Billot, CEO of Scale AI, stated: “Generative artificial intelligence is playing an increasingly important role across many sectors. At Scale AI, we recognize its potential to transform industries and substantially improve productivity and operational efficiency in value chains. We want to encourage companies to explore these new opportunities.”

Gen AI represents an immense occasion to revolutionize value chain management and accelerate the transformation of Canadian businesses. While the majority of projects supported by Scale AI so far have focused on other types of AI, this call for projects reflects the growing importance of Gen AI-based solutions. Scale AI encourages companies to adopt these new technologies and support those looking to commercialize innovative solutions that harness them.

Applications will be evaluated by an independent committee to ensure a rigorous assessment of the proposals. This is a unique chance for innovators to submit bold ideas and help shape the future of artificial intelligence in Canada.

Don’t miss this opportunity! Mark your calendars for September 26, and get ready to submit your generative AI project.
