AIMday 2025

ORGANIZED BY

Perspectives on AI

 

Welcome to AIMday, May 13, 2025! This unique event brings together academic researchers and organizations from the public and private sectors, as well as civil society, to discuss current challenges and opportunities – this year related to artificial intelligence (AI).

 

AIMday is an opportunity for academics and organisations to make contacts and exchange knowledge. It is simply the idea that a broad mix of academics can provide different perspectives and surprising new avenues to solving real-world problems – and to create favourable conditions for continued cooperation between academia and non-academic organisations.

 

Theme 2025: Perspectives on AI

Today, AI impacts everything from practical operations to societal development. During AIMday 2025, we will explore how AI can address societal challenges, develop new solutions, create sustainable benefits, and open up for discussions about potential risks and other concerns.

The questions can, for example, address:

  • AI and education at different stages of life
  • Technological development and practical applications
  • Societal development and infrastructure
  • Democracy and citizen perspectives
  • Ethical and legal aspects

 

Registration for questioners

Does your organization have an AI-related challenge or question where researchers can contribute knowledge? Submit your question and join a discussion with academic researchers to find new perspectives and solutions!

Registration is open from February 24 to March 28.

 

Registration for researchers

Which questions would you like to discuss? Sign up for the questions you are interested in. You can participate in selected parts if you cannot attend the entire day.

The questions will be published here on April 1, and registration closes on April 20.

 

About the day

During AIMday, we will meet in Vardagsrummet, located in the Humanities Building on Umeå University campus. If you, as a questioner, cannot attend in person, you can participate digitally. Please indicate this when registering, and we will contact you.

A preliminary program is already available. The detailed program will be published on April 22.
