About

Established with a $240m investment from IBM, MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab is the most significant academic + corporate partnership in AI research. The MIT-IBM Membership Program invites select IBM partners to join the Lab by co-investing in specific research projects of interest.

Once a year, we invite all our industry partners to visit our Lab together as a group. This year’s Member Day promises to be particularly exciting!
