The French Language in the Age of Data and Artificial Intelligence – Youmani Jérôme LANKOANDÉ to Speak at International Seminar
On June 22–23, 2026, YULCOM Technologies will have the honor of participating in the Scientific Council Seminar of the French Language Observatory, dedicated to the theme:
“The French Language in the Age of Data: Scientific and Strategic Challenges for the Francophonie.”
As part of this event, Youmani Jérôme LANKOANDÉ, President and CEO of YULCOM Technologies, will join a distinguished panel of experts during the session on Linguistic Sovereignty and Artificial Intelligence, chaired by Professor Emerita Linda Cardinal of the University of Ottawa.
Date and Venue: June 23, 2026 | 2:40 PM – 3:00 PM – Château Laurier Hotel, Québec City, Canada
During the session, participants will present:
“Observing the French Language in the Era of Data and Artificial Intelligence: Demonstrating the Digital Platform of the French Language Observatory.”
At a time when large language models and generative AI are profoundly reshaping linguistic practices around the world, the ability of the Francophonie to produce, structure, analyze, and leverage its own linguistic data has become a critical issue of cultural, scientific, and digital sovereignty.
This presentation will highlight the transformative role of data technologies and artificial intelligence in monitoring the evolution of the French language. It will also demonstrate how innovative digital tools can help strengthen the vitality, visibility, and international influence of French in an increasingly data-driven world.
YULCOM Technologies is proud to contribute its expertise in artificial intelligence, big data, and digital transformation to this important discussion on the future of the French language in the digital age.
We extend our sincere thanks to the International Organization of La Francophonie (OIF) and the French Language Observatory for this invitation and are honored to participate in this collective reflection on the digital future of the Francophonie.
