Mission
The Centre Dedicated to Innovation and Applied Research on AI
The AIRIC (Artificial Intelligence Research and Innovation Center) at the Politecnico di Milano is dedicated to innovation and applied research on artificial intelligence.
Coordinated by the Department of Electronics, Information and Bioengineering (DEIB) and the Department of Management, Economics and Industrial Engineering (DIG), it brings together expertise at the Politecnico di Milano and distributes it to public and private organisations wanting to accelerate the introduction of AI in their operating model.
The AIRIC serves as cross-cutting infrastructure, acting as a bridge between scientific research and business innovation. The AIRIC involves the most qualified figures — internationally renowned researchers and scientists and the best software engineers — in developing state-of-the-art projects with a strong differential value that remain the client’s intellectual property. The AIRIC is also an accelerator for skills and professional growth, allowing young technicians from client companies to work side by side with senior researchers, offering them the opportunity to apply their knowledge to new and highly challenging problems.
The AIRIC combines scientific rigour and design flexibility, essential qualities for effectively facing the challenges of artificial intelligence in the real world, while contributing to the scientific and technological excellence of Italy and Europe.
