Events

CDI Foundation events, including the flagship Beyond Boundaries Global Festival, bring together people working in conversational AI. Our events are fun and interactive, designed to learn from each other and to celebrate the conversational AI community.

We have a focus on real enterprise use cases, conversation design best practices, and the latest future facing NLU technologies. 

Beyond Boundaries Global Festival Barcelona

Beyond Boundaries was a two-day Global event for generative AI and conversational AI professionals. 

 

It was the ultimate gathering of AI professionals, researchers, business leaders, and innovators from around the globe. 

Beyond Boundaries takes conversational AI to new heights, forges connections beyond our screens, celebrates our community and breaks down the barriers between people, organisations and technologies. 

 

Through Beyond Boundaries we are building a community, not just running a conference.
