Prague's International Researchers community
28. 04. 2021
Prague's International Researchers community (prg.ai) was established in 2019 by leading Czech scientists from the Czech Technical University, Charles University, and the Czech Academy of Sciences with the aim of making full use of local potential and transfrom Prague into a European centre of artificial intelligence. One of its priority therefore is to attract foreign researchers to Prague.
In this respect, prg.ai leads many activities such as creating Practical Guide for a Happa Life in Prague, seting up Slack workplace "Prague's International Researchers" that is open for researchers across diverse fields of research or establishing cooperation with the CU Staff Welcome Centre at Charles University.
Detailed information about the community and its activities is available on its website: prg.ai — Transforming Prague into a significant European AI hub
