The year 2025 was proclaimed the year of the agents. In 2026 AI agents will come to market and continue to shape economic processes. AI is “licensed to act” now.
The Economic Perspective on Artificial Intelligence (EPEAI) conference addresses these profound transformations. It will take place on June 16 and 17, 2026 at the University of Salford, Manchester and is co-organized by the University of Applied Sciences Ruhr West in Germany.
Call for papers
The call for papers is open until January 31, 2026 and invites contributions from a broad range of perspectives.
