Introduction

GW Inaugural Conference on the Intelligence of Things, George Washington University, 5 Apr 2019; Deadline 15 Dec

GW Inaugural Conference on the Intelligence of Things. Year 1: Research Opportunities and Challenges

Friday, April 5, 2019

 
As smart devices continue their rapid convergence with AI and deep learning models, a new IoT is coming into being that experts are calling the “Intelligence of Things.” Consumer behavior and marketing scholars are invited to join us in addressing the impact of the Intelligence of Things at a one-day boutique conference strictly limited to 70 participants to stimulate interaction.
 
To encourage research in different stages of development, the conference will feature traditional paper tracks, shorter concept tracks, and super short lightning rounds.

Keynotes: Two stellar researchers who are leaders in their industries will present keynote addresses on key issues:

  • Jan Neumann, Senior Director, Applied AI Research, Comcast (Ph.D., Computer Science, Maryland)
  • Brad Klingenberg, VP Data Science, StitchFix (Ph.D. Statistics, Stanford)

Program Committee:

  • Donna Hoffman and Tom Novak, Co-Chairs, George Washington University
  • Russ Belk, York University
  • Avi Goldfarb, University of Toronto
  • Szu-chi Huang, Stanford University
  • Bob Meyer, University of Pennsylvania
  • Meng Zhu, Johns Hopkins University

Submissions: Research is invited on a wide variety of topics – conceptual, computational, experimental and empirical – related to the impact of the intelligence of things on consumers, markets, and our broader society.

Email submission deck to dlhoffman@gwu.edu and novak@gwu.edu by December 15, 2018. Notification by February 1, 2019.
