    Emotional artificial intelligence, technology for automatic recognition of emotions and human behavior is an interdisciplinary field of research that transformed in the 2010s into a full-fledged, booming industry. In fact, we are talking about a new technology market, which is developing thanks to the effective interaction of academic science with the technology business and venture capital. The active participation of Russian start-ups and laboratories in it, as well as the open opportunities for research and business collaborations, will make it possible to successfully scale up innovative technological solutions and integrate emotional technologies into various industry contexts.

    Blocks of reports are supposed in a number of areas:

    1. Introductory block: Emotion AI from the point of view of science, Emotion AI as a new technology market, Neuronet government funding programs, ITMO technology park and other infrastructure in St. Petersburg;
    2. Project block: brief presentations by startups and laboratories;
    3. Technical block: Emotion AI through the prism of ML / CV approaches;
    4. Block of open initiatives: Emotion AI platform and AI hub from Neurodata Lab, open source project of NRU ITMO with FEFU “Neurotechnologies, VR / AR”, etc.
