We are thrilled to announce the second joint conference and summer school on Evolutionary Game Theory and Artificial Intelligence, EGAI 2024, which will be held August 5 - 8 in Beijing, China.

The inaugural conference, EGAI 2023, took place last July, with Dr. Feng Fu, the primary initiator of the summer school, the first of its kind in China, conducting in-person lectures with the help of Dr. Xin Wang and Dr. Xingru Chen. Additionally, we hosted five keynote speakers: two Chinese scholars Dr. Zhihai Rong and Dr. Bin Wu, delivering live lectures, together with three international scholars Dr. Martin Nowak, Dr. Christian Hilbe, and Dr. Alex McAvoy, delivering virtual lectures. The insightful discussions and exchanges during and after the event were greatly valued by over 100 attendees from more than 40 universities and institutions across China.

This year, we are eager to continue fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and promoting collaboration within the global research community through our visionary initiative. The conference will feature a diverse program, including interactive workshops as well as keynote lectures from renowned experts, panel discussions, and research proposal presentations. Together, we will make it a great success with broad impacts!
