„Artificial Intelligence solutions will be most commonly used in healthcare in the future (15.7% of
the market value), especially for disease diagnosis, drug development and personalized medicine.
Other areas where we will increasingly see AI solutions are in the enterprise software area such as
finance and cybersecurity, manufacturing, business & legal, retail and logistics, green energy and
new materials generation. We see these international trends also in the fourth edition of
AdvancingAI, where a third of the finalist startups are from the healthcare area and a significant
part from the cybersecurity segment, two of the areas where people need innovation the most„,
said Cristian Dascălu – Managing Partner Techcelerator.
