Japan Night @ NeurIPS 2026 Paris (10th December 7pm-9pm)

How's the presence of Japan AI research ecosystems at NeurIPS Paris 2026? I'm unofficially organizing Japan Night event on the week of NeurIPS to gather all the researchers from Japanese AI ecosystems, inclusive event to everyone! Dates: December 10th (Thursday) 7pm-9pm Venue: Paris 17th Arrondissement, near Palais des Congrès de Paris (Exact venue visible to approved attendees). We'd like to gather and connect people from Japan, or those interested in AI research ecosystem in Japan, or aim to empower Japanese AI innovation in the globe! Sovereign AI is increasingly popular words lately, but also intensity of talent connection is crucial prerequisite for critical mass! We gather in a space in Paris close to the venue, and will enjoy networking with drinks and dinner. Sponsorship and Co-organizers (preferably students or faculties) wanted for event logistics, reception, etc. Please contact us!
