Data intelligence, recognized as a crucial technology in the artificial intelligence era, has become one of the most important tools for future enterprises. S2W, a company specializing in data intelligence, held a summit on Thursday to exchange insights on security and AI.
A summit titled ‘SIS 2024 MERGE’ took place in Gangnam, Seoul, focusing on the theme ‘Future of AI and Security.’ The SIS, which stands for S2W Intelligence Summit, featured seven speech sessions and one discussion session. Eleven experts from various fields, including business, academia, and law, presented their insights on AI and cybersecurity from multiple perspectives.
“We hope everyone gains insight into AI and security by connecting with people who share the same interests,” said Suh Sang-duk, chief executive officer of S2W, during the summit’s opening speech.
According to S2W, the summit aims to help individuals who do not work in the security industry or who are unfamiliar with security gain a better understanding of data intelligence. Additionally, it seeks to popularize data intelligence, which is still a small field in South Korea, and prepare the next generation to harness the potential of data intelligence in addressing future challenges.
Myeong Ji-yeon, senior manager of the Strategy and Business Center at S2W, emphasized that the summit focuses on creating a platform for exchanging solutions to address data and technology challenges.
“The purpose of the summit is to converge security and AI. We aim to lead the way in solving social problems intertwined with technology,” Myeong said.
