Numalis had the pleasure of taking part in the two-day summit, which brought together over 100 countries, including heads of state, official delegations, industrials and AI experts. Organised in France, the summit promotes international cooperation for responsible AI that serves the general interest.

It demonstrates our strong commitment towards trustworthy AI, as the Minister for the Armed Forces, Sébastien Lecornu, stated in his opening speech, « France is taking the lead in military AI. Its schools, training courses, scientists and companies are the main drivers ».

In an international context of competition in AI, sovereignty issues are essential to keep France at the forefront, and Numalis is proud to play its part.

During the summit, on February 10th, the French Ministry of Defence organised a series of conferences devoted to AI in the field of defence at the École Militaire. Arnault IOUALALEN had the privilege of taking part in a round table alongside renowned experts such as Sébastien Henwood (AMIAD – Ministerial Agency for Defence AI), Fateh KAAKAI (Thales) and Loic CANTAT (IRT SystemX). They shared their thoughts on the evaluation and qualification of AI models for defence and security.

Numalis also had the opportunity of showcasing SAIMPLE®, tooling for the development and deployment of AI systems that our armed forces can rely on for their operations. An honor to present in front of Ministerial Delegations from 95 countries attending the Military Talks.

On February 11th, Numallis was engaged with brilliant minds at STATION F during a high-impact Business Day co-organized by Bpifrance, France Digitale, and numeum, with the support of Présidence de la République and La French Tech.

Arnault had the pleasure to talk to Matthieu Courtecuisse (Sia), Clément Bénesse (opsci.ai) and Bruno Grieder (Cosmian) during a round table discussion on managing the risks and challenges of AI.

This engaging day was punctuated for Numalis by a number of meetings with leading players on the subject of AI.
