Making boats fly with deep reinforcement learning

In this QuantumBlack Australia virtual Meetup, we will discuss how McKinsey is helping Emirates Team New Zealand (ETNZ) to defend the oldest trophy in international sport, the America’s Cup.

Nic Hohn and George Mathews will share their experience as ETNZ’s official technology partner, how Deep Reinforcement Learning revolutionised the design process for the upcoming race, and will build capability to drive competitive advantage in future campaigns.

This talk is most relevant for data scientists, translators, and analytics managers.

Due to the COVID-19 virus we will be running this Meetup virtually. We are running one meeting nationwide and all are welcome. We have also extended this invite to our Asia-Pacific colleagues and networks to join us at this event. We are looking forward to meeting everyone via Zoom and hope this will allow more people to enjoy the discussion.
