Eight learnings from the 2021 Deep Learning Barcelona Symposium

For Glovo, being a fast growing startup has meant that for years we have prioritized productionizing ML models over engaging frequently with the research community. In the last year, however, we felt like we reached the maturity stage needed to start engaging with the rest of the AI community. To help with this, we founded a new team within our Central Data Science organization: the CORE (Collaboration and Research) team. CORE's mission is to explore high-risk high-reward R&D projects in the AI space, foster scientific publications and increase conference attendance. A key part of this initiative is sponsoring and participating in relevant AI conferences.
