Interspeech 2016, the world’s largest conference on speech technologies to be held in San Francisco, the heart of Silicon Valley, provides a unique opportunity to present the most recent developments and ideas of both academia and industry. Located at the cross-section of the two, startups that are interested in using speech in their products or that want to share their experience in doing so, are invited to participate in the speech venture special event. This event provides a platform for participants to interact with the brightest speech researchers and present and discover new trends in spoken language technology.

The objective of this special event are two-fold:

  • Leverage the experience and stories of startups as they adopt speech in their products
  • Enable startups to attend a day of the largest conference in speech and meet with researchers, companies, and research institutions
