-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

2nd Brazilian Workshop on Artificial Intelligence in Finance
Satellite Event of the XLIII Congress of the Brazilian Computer Society
João Pessoa, Paraíba, July 23rd-28th, 2023.
https://csbc.sbc.org.br/2023/bwaif/023/

Artificial Intelligence, and in particular Machine Learning, is a technology that is transforming how we integrate information, analyze data and make decisions, with large impact throughout our society. Advances in AI are being felt in our economy, with significant impacts in finance, including financial markets, services, and the global financial system more broadly.

The Brazilian Workshop on Artificial Intelligence in Finance (BWAIF), which will have its second edition as a satellite event of the XLIII Congress of the Brazilian Computer Society, will be a forum for researchers, professionals, educators and students to present and discuss innovations, trends, experiences and evolution in the fields of Artificial Intelligence and its applications in Finance.

BWAIF will take place as a Satellite event of the SBC Congress, whose theme in 2023 is the "Opportunities and challenges of the integration of the physical and digital worlds", has a huge relationship with the development of a society that uses digital resources for financial transactions, where large institutions have focused part of their resources for the development of "phygital" platforms,  which implies the convergence of actions in the physical, digital and social aspects of organizations.

Although being an event of the Brazilian Computer Society conference, with papers being accepted in English and Portuguese, we encourage the participation of the international community, with main presentations in English. The conference will be held in person, in João Pessoa, a beautiful beach city on the Atlantic coast, the capital of the Brazilian state of Paraiba. Being founded more than 400 years ago, it has many architectural and natural monuments, with brightly painted art nouveau architecture that hints at the city’s creative tradition. A powerful coastal sunshine keeps beaches bustling year-round in Joao Pessoa, with bars, restaurants, coconut palms, and a broad promenade along the seafront.
