INTRODUCTION
Societies and industries face many challenges to be more intelligent and sustainable. In this context, many good practices and approaches are being explored, and numerous new contributions are being generated daily. Many good practices and procedures are being investigated, and several unique contributions emerge without benefitting from sufficient visibility. The track "Artificial Intelligence for Industry and Society" aims to overcome precisely this gap. An intelligent society looks to citizens' problems and tries to maximize the use of high-potential innovative technologies by collaboration across multiple sectors so as to create more efficient, intelligent, and adaptable services, and, ultimately, to enable prosperity and resilience. This is where the concept of smart cities comes into play, as they are perfectly positioned to integrate smart infrastructures with human needs through community services. Connected and efficient cities and communities can lead to informed, engaged, and contented citizens.
However, to have an innovative society, intelligent industries are also necessary. The concept of Industry 4.0 is associated with the digital transformation of manufacturing and related sectors, as well as value-creation processes. Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a vital role in automating processes, predicting errors, and reducing failures. However, we are now witnessing post-Industry 4.0 developments in Europe and around the World, as led by eco-innovation and green (re-)industrialization", driven by the transition to sustainable development. AI will have an even stronger role in these, as complex multi-disciplinary projects need its support.
In this evolution, industry and society must work together, and this is a truly multidisciplinary endeavour whereby AI is a key hinge and facilitator between technologies, people, goods, and services. The present conference track seeks to bring together researchers and professionals, enabling them to explore new solutions and applications across society and industry, including novelties and best practices that can be implemented in the real world. The event enters a new era of technical communication by demonstrating how scientific knowledge can be transferred to society and applied in industry using Data Science and AI approaches in topics such as "Business, Industry, and Smart Factory" and "Sustainable and Smart Cities and Societies". IA4IS is open to receiving and selecting several high-quality contributions in these two areas, especially propositions related to cognitive computing platforms and applications, including technologies and infrastructures associated with AI, machine learning, big data processing and data analytics.

PAPER SUBMISSION
All papers should be submitted in PDF format through the EPIA'2025 submission Website. Submissions must be original and can be of two types: regular (full-length) papers should not exceed twelve (12) pages in length, whereas short papers should not exceed six (6) pages. Each submission will be peer-reviewed by at least three members of the Program Committee. The reviewing process is double-blind. The best-accepted papers will be published in the proceedings by Springer in the LNAI series (previous EPIA proceedings were indexed in Thomson ISI Web of Knowledge, Scopus, DBLP, and the ACM Digital Library). The remaining accepted papers will be published in the local proceedings with an ISBN.
*Authors of the best papers presented at the AI4IS track of EPIA will be invited to submit extended versions of their manuscripts for a Springer Special Issue or at other EPIA Fast-Track submission processes
