THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS AWARDS FOR WOMEN IN AI FOR THE ASIA-PACIFIC REGION
Pioneered by Women In AI (WAI), the WAI Awards honors women from diverse backgrounds who are making significant advances in the field of Artificial Intelligence.
Now on its 3rd year in APAC, we're once again inviting all women working with AI technologies in the Asia-Pacific region who are taking the road less travelled; the women who are paving the way for others to reach even further and to dare to dream even bigger to try new things, be vulnerable, be seen, and be celebrated.
