The annual international conference “International Conference on Information and Software Technologies” (ICIST), organised by the Faculty of Informatics of Kaunas University of Technology (KTU IF), took place on October 16–17. It brought together researchers from informatics, artificial intelligence (AI), cybersecurity, and other fields from around the world.
The event brought together researchers, engineers, and practitioners from the academic and business environments to share the latest research in information systems, software engineering, and AI applications, emphasising the importance of combining technologies with social needs.
“ICIST is a conference during which theory turns into practice. We want each presentation to have real applicability and promote cooperation between universities, business and the public sector,” emphasised Dr Audrius Lopata, one of the event organisers.
“At this year’s ICIST conference, we aimed to show how technology is becoming a part of human life – from smart systems to education and health solutions,” said the conference organiser, KTU IF Vice-Dean for Science Dr Daina Gudonienė.
KTU IF Dean Assoc. Prof. Jonas Čeponis emphasised the importance of the conference for the Lithuanian scientific community: “The ICIST conference generates new ideas that connect the university, business and innovation. This is a great example of how international cooperation strengthens the technological potential of our country.”
