Cypher 2024 is just around the corner, and if you’re considering not attending, you might miss out the most from the biggest AI summit of India. After all, who would want to waste their time rubbing shoulders with the brightest minds and getting exclusive insights from top industry leaders?
When it comes to the speakers, the line is pretty fascinating. With the session from the former member of Rajya Sabha Subramanian Swamy to insightful AI discussions with Vivek Raghavan, co-founder of Sarvam AI and Nikhil Malhotra, the head of the Project Indus, everything seems to just fall into place.
Around 2000+ AI and data scientists attending each day with decision-makers and C-level executives from Fortune 500 companies all gathering to share their wisdom, it’s almost as if you’d be overwhelmed with knowledge. And who doesn’t need that?
Cypher is notorious for its intense networking opportunities, from the rapid-fire FlashConnect sessions to the laid-back yet insightful VoxPops. To put this into perspective, Cypher 2023 had around 15% startups, 25% GCCs, 20% IT providers, 15% consulting firms, and 25% Indian companies.
And Cypher 2024 is going to be at least twice as big as the last one.
But really, who needs more professional connections? Why expand your network with industry leaders and potential collaborators when you could just stay in your comfort zone? For staying in the comfort zone, Cypher 2024 will also host an Experience Zone where you can relax and enjoy your own AI created music with Beatoven.ai.
With three jam-packed days of content, featuring talks from renowned speakers like Amit Kapur from Lowe, Santosh Hegde from Couchbase, Shekar Sivasubramanian from Wadhwani AI, it’s almost as if Cypher is daring you to learn too much. The sheer volume of actionable insights, innovative strategies, and cutting-edge AI discussions might just fry your brain.
Cypher began in 2015 with a straightforward mission: to bridge the gap between the AI community and various industries, both established and emerging. The idea quickly gained traction.
Over the years, Cypher has evolved into the largest AI conference in India, expanding at an unprecedented rate. But it’s not just about size— it is also considered the best AI conference in the country.
Then comes The Minsky Awards for Excellence in AI. These awards are highly esteemed AI accolades, exclusively honouring enterprise-level achievements. These awards celebrate outstanding excellence in AI, highlighting the most innovative and impactful applications of artificial intelligence.
Cypher hosts people from all over the world. And when it comes to India, though most of them attend from Bangalore, representatives from all the companies from different cities in India that are using generative AI are present to share insights and collaborate.
This also includes companies from diverse industries. Last year, Cypher 2023 had around 30% representation from IT companies, 20% from the financial sector, 15% from healthcare and life sciences, 10% each for manufacturing, consulting, and e-commerce, and the rest 5% from education and government organisations.
Too Much AI Pressure?
Let’s face it: being inspired by success stories, groundbreaking innovations, and the future direction of AI might just get you motivated to push boundaries in your own work—and who needs that kind of pressure?
Especially this time, with the AI Startup ecosystem rising in India, a dedicated track at Cypher where leading startups showcase their latest innovations, might be too much to handle for people getting into the field. Or maybe, it might be the best motivation needed to start your own venture.
Cypher 2024 might seem like the ultimate destination for anyone serious about AI and data science, but think carefully before you attend. The last thing you want is to be bombarded with insights, network with industry leaders, and leave with your head buzzing full of new ideas. After all, staying in your comfort zone has its own charm, doesn’t it?
