An AI supercluster
Montréal has positioned itself as a leading global hub for AI, attracting top talent, innovative startups and major tech companies. Microsoft Research Lab, IBM, Meta’s Fundamental AI Research Lab, Google Research, DeepMind and the Samsung AI Center are all researching AI in the city, but it is Mila—the Québec Artificial Intelligence Institute—that puts Montréal on the map for AI.
Mila's community is the largest concentration of deep learning academic researchers globally and has fostered groundbreaking advances in machine learning, natural language processing and computer vision. Also breaking ground in AI is the CHUM School of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare—the first of its kind to focus on the development of human capacities and the implementation of AI in real health environments.
