NTT Research held the Upgrade 2020 the NTT Research global summit from September 28 to October 1.

The PHI Lab day, Sept. 29, featured talks from several of our academic partners. As noted, the PHI Lab has 25 external collaborators. The latest of nine joint research agreements in this field of study was announced in September 2020 with the University of Notre Dame, and we were pleased to have the principal investigator in that project, Dr. Zoltán Toroczkai, join us to discuss some of his research. Other academics from Stanford, UC Berkeley, MIT, CalTech, University of Michigan and University of Tokyo also presented. The PHI Lab day of the summit also featured an additional 11 posters, demonstrating the breadth of active research in this field.

The recorded talks remain available online here and you can also see the poster session here (posters and summary videos).
