Call for Demos

EAI GOODTECHS 2023 – 9th EAI International Conference on Smart Objects and Technologies for Social Good invites you to present demonstrations during the main conference held on October 18-20 in LEIRIA, Portugal.

The purpose of demos is to allow authors to showcase their work, which can include newly developed services, cutting-edge research, or prototypes of products that address the topics suggested in the conference scope. A demo has the potential to be a more powerful than a regular presentation because it provides an opportunity to communicate ideas and concepts in a more compelling way. All accepted demos will be presented at the conference, allowing presenters to interact with attendees and display their work and technologies. It’s recommended to make demos visually appealing and present them in an innovative way.

Demos also offer the chance to share innovative ideas, receive immediate feedback from an expert audience, and potentially turn a research project into a viable business idea

 

Scope

The focus is on the future of Smart objects and technologies that can benefit society, particularly in the areas of health and well-being, environmental protection and sustainability, safety and security, and sports and physical activity. The conference is seeking new, creative, and stimulating work in these fields and hopes to bring together people from around the world who are working in this area to exchange ideas, discuss innovative and emerging solutions, and establish collaborations.

Demonstrations are an excellent way for visitors to experience the latest advances and research studies. There are various options for demonstrations available throughout the conference, such as in the lobby, alongside the tracks, or during a coffee break.
