LONDON – The nominations for the world-renowned AIconics awards have been announced today. Twelve awards celebrating the most innovating AI companies will be unveiled in a prestigious ceremony to be held at The State Apartments of Kensington Palace on the 12th of June 2019 among an elite audience of 300 guests.

Now in their fourth edition, the 2019 awards have seen a doubling of nominations for this year from 40 countries, with 800 different entries across twelve categories. The AIconics are the world’s only independently-judged awards celebrating the drive, innovation and hard work in the international AI Community. A panel of 20 judges from around the world, in addition to AI Business, thoroughly reviewed competitive entries from the foremost innovators in the AI Space.

Among the most exciting new awards to be handed out this year is the ‘AI for Good’ category with a record 10 nominations competing in showcasing the best AI can do for humanity – from education to healthcare.

Judged by a panel of world-class AI experts, including senior leaders from VCs, academia and enterprise end-users, the awards provide innovators with the platform to showcase themselves to their peers as well as millions of enterprise end-users. The AIconics are organised by AI Business and are a highlight of the upcoming AI Summit London, the world’s largest AI event for business that brings together 20,000 delegates at the ExCeL on the 12th and 13th of June 2019.

Artificial Intelligence is now beginning to dominate conversations in the technology sphere, with businesses increasingly aware of the immense potential that AI brings.”
