We have left behind an exciting year, full of activities, culminating in a very successful ICAIL 2019 in Montreal and the decision to organise the next ICAIL 2021 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, for the first time in Latin America. All this testifies to the character of a lively community...
We are happy to announce that ICAIL 2021 will be organized by Juliano Maranhão and his team in São Paulo, Brazil, with tentative conference dates of June 21 through June 25. The bid has been selected by the IAAIL executive committee after careful consideration of five bids. Adam Wyner is program chair of the ICAIL 2021 conference and Michał Araszkiewicz serves as secretary/treasurer.
Best wishes,
On behalf of the IAAIL executive committee,
Bart Verheij, president
Enrico Francesconi, vice-president
Anne Gardner, secretary/treasurer
We can look back at an exciting ICAIL edition in Montreal (https://icail2019-cyberjustice.com). We enjoyed a strong program with research papers across the breadth of our field by researchers of all career stages; there was a good variation of workshops and tutorials covering current developments and supporting the government and industry connection; and Yoshua Bengio and Pim Haselager provided inspiring keynote lectures.
