Upper Bound 2024


Running May 21 – 24, 2024, Upper Bound is an annual AI conference for students, academics, business professionals, and enthusiasts leading the way in shaping a positive AI future — for good and for all.

Bringing together the global AI ecosystem, more than 3000 individuals from around the world gathered in Edmonton, AB last year for AI-focused learning, discussions, debates, and collaboration last year.

In 2024, you can expect all of that and more. Industry experts and research leaders will excite you with what’s coming and challenge your understanding of what’s possible. Extraordinary events will capture your imagination and introduce you to peers, potential employers and the next generation of the AI workforce. With an expanded program, including the addition of masterclasses and applied AI sessions, the conference is more hands-on and rewarding than ever before.

There’s tons of opportunity to pack into four days. Make friends over coffee. Debate the future of the field over drinks. And be inspired to put all you learned into action when you return to your home base, wherever in the world that may be.

Ticket information will be released soon. In the meantime…
