ABOUT CUCAI

Where Tomorrow's AI Innovators Meet

CUCAI is a not-for-profit conference that unites over 320 of Canada's brightest AI minds. Run entirely by passionate undergraduate volunteers, we provide a platform for students to learn, collaborate, and connect with industry leaders.

Since 2018, CUCAI has been at the forefront of fostering AI talent, offering students the opportunity to showcase their projects and research. Our flagship event, the AI Project Showcase, brings together top student teams from across Canada to present their work to recruiters, sponsors, speakers, and peers.

Join us for CUCAI 2025, happening in Toronto, Ontario, on March 8-9.
