After a summer of traveling across Europe, from thought-provoking events in Riga to conversations with SMEs in London, we’re closing this leg of the ArbaLabs journey with something we care deeply about: people.
This month, we’re launching a two-month collaboration with students from the University of Birmingham, inviting a new generation to explore the real-world complexities of deeptech innovation.
Why Birmingham?
The university’s strong track record in Aerospace Computer science, engineering, and AI ethics made it a natural fit. More importantly, it fosters a culture of applied learning — exactly the kind of mindset we believe is essential when bridging cutting-edge research with practical, scalable systems.
We wanted a partner that values rigor but isn’t afraid to experiment.
A place where curiosity is encouraged - and constraints are seen as creative fuel.
Whether we’re building AI systems that operate at the edge, or validating outputs in low-connectivity, high-stakes environments, our mission isn’t just technical, it’s human.
And as we continue our global operations, our goal is clear: to take the insights, energy, and partnerships we built in the past few months and scale them through new projects, new collaborations, and continued cross-regional momentum.
We believe the future of EDGE-AI depends on local execution, global understanding, and verifiable trust at every layer.
From Birmingham to Taipei, we’re just getting started.
