Archimedes members Christos Papadimitriou and John Pavlopoulos will take part in the panel “Education in the Era of Intelligent Systems” at the Academy of Athens Conference on Education, on Wednesday, 21 October 2026.
The conference is the fourth of five conferences organised by the Academy of Athens during 2026, as part of the celebrations for its 100th anniversary. Its programme brings together three discussions: educational reform, education and identities, and education in the era of intelligent systems.
