To reinforce and strengthen the motivation of conference participants to work on and meeting their goals, we have invited famous people from the field of science (SAV) & architecture (SKA). Our focus is put on the connection between scientific knowledge of new energy sources, smart buildings & design - architects, and effective smart city solutions – IT innovative companies.
Thursday “Metro ROCK Party” is going to provide you with a superb opportunity to deepen business relations among partners, major clients and local governments. The final part of the evenings is going to be spent in a traditional spirit of informal networking, relaxation and entertainment in “ROCK” style. ROCK this year is not only about thematical music, but also about elementary foundation of every building in the city!
Friday night you will be able to feel ancient atmosphere on Lubovninasky castle, through unique and unforgottable solstice party.

Libor Bešenyi
Xolution Xolution Libor is the CTO and co-owner of Xolution. He has been working in custom software development for more than 15 years and in artificial intelligence for the last 7 years. The projects he works on, win various awards. He and his colleagues are trying to create cognitive but synthetic intelligence. It is the holy grail of cybernetics. The projects he is working on fit into this idea. The company is gradually expanding the robot's cognitive capabilities and thus automating things that don't go the standard IT routes. Cybernetics bridges the fields of natural sciences, with social sciences. Philosophy, ethics, linguistics, and psychology are addressed, and these are topics that Libor has been a fan of all his life. Today he can apply it in practice. He has been on the board of the company for the last 8 years. His job is to make economic sense of edge technologies. This has proven to be the most difficult discipline in Libor's life. Otherwise, he has a family, a son and a dog. To unwind, he goes out with a drill in hand, to the countryside or to tango classes.
