“Research Innovation and Incubation Showcase (RIISE) is a confluence of thought leaders, researchers, innovators and developers, who are passionate about bringing new advances in key areas including AI, Healthcare, Sustainability, Cyber Physical Systems, Design etc.  RIISE also had parallel tracks for Technology as a Public Good and Lab to Market + Startups.

More than 100 delegates from industry, academia, and government were present including 40 renowned speakers as a part of panel discussions and talks that offered insights into their recent research and findings, including work that has not been published yet.
