Dear Colleagues,

(Apologies if you receive this message multiple times via different mailing lists.)

This is the final call for papers for the 2nd Workshop on Agent AI for Scenario Planning (AgentScen), to be held in conjunction with IJCAI-25, taking place August 16, 2025, in Montreal, Canada.

Submission Deadline: May 21, 2025 (Anywhere on Earth)
Workshop Website: https://sites.google.com/view/agentscen

The AgentScen workshop aims to explore the role of agent-based AI in scenario planning—an area of growing importance in domains such as:

• Healthcare & Biomedicine: pandemic preparedness, hospital resource allocation, medical innovation, and telehealth evolution.

• Finance & Business: market volatility, investment risk, regulatory adaptation, and financial planning under uncertainty.

The workshop will feature:

• Paper presentations

• A shared task: Generating business ideas from patent documents
  Participants will generate product ideas by analyzing real-world patent texts, helping to spark innovation through AI interpretation of technical knowledge.

We invite researchers, practitioners, and interdisciplinary collaborators to submit their work and participate in this exciting opportunity to shape the future of scenario-based AI systems.

We look forward to your contributions!

Warm regards,
