Can Asian countries develop an Alternative Innovation Narrative?”\nhttps://www.szoil.org/ric-webinar-series/\nInside Shenzhen’s race to outdo Silicon Valley\nhttps://www.technologyreview.com/2018/12/18/1661/inside-shenzhens-race-to-outdo-silicon-valley/\nArduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs – light on a sensor\, a finger on a button\, or a Twitter message – and turn it into an output – activating a motor\, turning on an LED\, publishing something online. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do so you use the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring)\, and the Arduino Software (IDE)\, based on Processing.\nhttps://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Introduction\nTETRA project provides business support to third parties awarding NGI open calls issued by NGI-TRUST\, NGI0-PET\, LEDGER\, NGI0-DISCOVERY and by those projects who will be funded under H2020 call ICT-24-2019.\nhttps://ngi.eu/ngi-projects/tetra/

SUMMARY:HubIT webinar
DESCRIPTION:The Next Generation Internet: A Guide to the New Concept and its Opportunities\nThe Next Generation Internet (NGI) has the potential to disrupt our economy\, society\, and environment even more than internet technologies have changed our world over the last “emerging-Internet” years. \nTo develop a human-centric internet\, where technology is utilized as a powerful tool to serve the core European values of equality and democracy\, there must be the right priorities and framework set. NGI – European Commission initiative aims to develop the current Internet in terms of service and speed and launch an entirely new range of applications which will transform the current use of the Internet. The opportunities of such worldwide change will be uncovered during three presentations throughout the webinar. \n“Introduction to the Next Generation Internet: The Internet of Humans” by Robert Miskuf (Pedal Consulting) \nThe Next Generation Internet (NGI) is a European Commission initiative that aims to shape the development and evolution of the Internet into an Internet of Humans. The focus is on advanced technologies including privacy and trust\, search and discovery\, decentralized architectures\, blockchain\, Internet of Things\, social media\, interactive technologies\, as well as technologies supporting multilingualism and accessibility. To ensure durable impact NGI also provides mentoring to help bring research and innovation outcomes to the market. \nIn his presentation\, Robert Miskuf from PEDAL Consulting (a partner of the TETRA project which acts as a business accelerator for NGI) will present the most relevant actions in this field. \n“The Next Generation Internet – Re-thinking the Digital Agenda Towards the Society” by Jose Gonzalez (Australo) \nJose’s presentation will outline what are the key values of the Next Generation Internet (NGI) and what that actually means. The roadmap which shapes the human-centered Internet will be presented as the ideology that the people-centered Internet works to make sure the Internet is a positive force for good\, improving the lives and well-being of people around the world. The presentation of “Digital Agenda” will underline the need for defining such a strategy\, giving examples like the empowerment of women in STEM\, and the significant role that mobility programmes have over the professional careers of talented researchers and entrepreneurs. \n“Trusted and Reliable Content on Future Blockchains” by Mirko Lorenz (TruBlo) \nThe presentation will address the importance of ensuring truthful content online as the amount of fake news or misleading and false information presented as news increases each year. The main topic of the presentation spans the fight against dis- and mal-information and with regard to Next Generation Internet (NGI) – a vision of useful\, trusted content for society as a whole.

SUMMARY:NGI Forward: dialogues on Data & Policy
DESCRIPTION:Salon: Data and Policy\nDo register early as we have limited seating in the (online) workshops.\nhttps://app.livestorm.co/made-group/dialogues-on-data-and-policy-the-40-the-identity-and-the-privacy-issue \nExecutive Vice-President for A Europe Fit for the Digital Age\, Margrethe Vestager\, said: “You don’t have to share all data. But if you do and data is sensitive you should be able to do in a manner where data can be trusted and protected. We want to give business and citizens the tools to stay in control of data. And to build trust that data is handled in line with European values and fundamental rights.” \nIt is clear that there is an urgency for an alternative European model to data handling practice of major tech platforms\, and pave the way for sectoral European data spaces to benefit society\, citizens and companies. \nWE WANT YOUR INPUT AND IDEAS: Go tell.edgeryders.eu \nWe invite experts to give their recommendations for NGI. Two EU funded H2020 projects in this domain join this event NGI FORWARD and DAPSI.

SUMMARY:The Overweb Challenge
DESCRIPTION:The Overweb Challenge: hack your idea of what the Internet can be\nThe Internet is the Wild Wild West. People believe what they read on the web but they shouldn’t. It was not always that way. The web started out as communities of researchers sharing knowledge within their field. But search and social media algorithms along with fake accounts have created an Internet of silos. People and information are isolated in polarized bubbles that channel their attention with fake virality. This is enabled by browsers that make the Internet flat and static\, while treating people and information as commodities. \nBut browsers have the potential to connect information and access the Internet in its full dimensionality. We can have a deeply connected Internet that layers knowledge on top of web pages. We can have an Internet of Ideas. \nWe are building browser extensions and network protocols to access the Overweb\, a trust layer over the webpage that provides deep layers of context for any idea on the web enabling you to discern what you can believe on the web. Just as the Wild Wild West ultimately became Silicon Valley\, the Internet will evolve into the Overweb.

SUMMARY:NGIAtlantic.eu - Third Open Call proposers webinar
DESCRIPTION:Show your Talent through our Twinning Lab: Third Open Call proposers webinar\nFollowing  the  first  two successful  Open Calls\, on the 1st of December NGIatlantic.eu launched its third call to support EU- organisations to carry out research experiments across Next Generation Internet application domains using EU and/or US-based experimental platforms. The application deadline for this third open call is 26th of February 2021.  For this third call\, proposals will address one or both the priority areas identified: (i) the development and/or evolution of EU – US Experimental Platforms for NGI experiments\, and/or (ii) experimentation of results with key NGI technologies addressing NGI priority topics where results are mature enough for transatlantic experiments. Internet Trustworthiness and Greening the internet are new topics introduced under this call. \nThis webinar is part of a series organised around the NGIatlantic.eu Open Calls. It will introduce the NGIatlantic.eu project and opportunities and will follow with a deep dive-into the details of the third Open Call\, including the NGI topic focus areas where experiments will be funded. This time the event will also offer to the active participants of the NGIatlantic.eu Twinning Lab a roadshow to promote their current work and ideas for initiating future projects. Both public and private institutions from the EU and the US will gain the opportunity to start a collaborative dialogue with potential partners which can contribute to the complete deployment and adoption of their experiments connected to Next Generation Internet fields through the NGIatlantic.eu open calls. \nThe third NGIatlantic.eu open call is open until the 26th February 2021. This pitching session constitutes a great opportunity not only to active participants to the Twinning Lab\, but also to potential new ones willing to join the NGIatlantic.eu open calls. In the final part of the event\, participants will join a practical visual collaboration session to enable them to easily build and map relevant ideas for future experiments \nParticipants will: \n\nGet insights about the NGIatlantic.eu services and open calls.\nExplore the benefits and added value of joining the Twinning Lab online tool.\nPromote their services and find collaborations for generating new experiments.\nGenerate new ideas and link them with those of potential partners from the EU-US.\n\nREGISTER HERE!

SUMMARY:Monitoring Digital Transformation
DESCRIPTION:Monitoring Digital Transformation: The role of Artificial Intelligence in the Industrial Modernisation\nArtificial intelligence has rapidly gained in importance and diffusion and is now beyond the nascent phase. This workshop will review in detail the demand and supply dynamics related to the AI pointing to the opportunities\, most promising use cases and future potential arising from Artificial Intelligence. \nAI’s potential in terms of future growth and socio-economic impacts is impressive. As a general-purpose technology\, it is expected to be adopted in a variety of ways by all industries and by a multitude of actors. Indeed\, the COVID-19 pandemic has underlined the centrality of AI (for example in contact tracing) in countering the disease. Nonetheless\, the deployment of AI use cases is hindered by multiple challenges and implementation barriers. To reap concrete business opportunities\, enterprises must be aware of these challenges and of the countermeasures that industry and policy makers are trying to implement in Europe. \nAfter an introduction on ATI project and an overview of the main trends in AI\, the workshop will explore policies\, initiatives and services that are being developed to foster AI adoption and will discuss on the impact those initiatives have on end users\, especially SMEs. \nRegister at the link below:\nhttps://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/ATIWORKSHOPAI25012021

SUMMARY:NGI Forward: dialogues on the future of search
DESCRIPTION:Salon: The future of Information access for search and discovery in next generation internet\nRegister early: https://app.livestorm.co/made-group/dialogues-on-data-and-search-the-future-of-information-and-search \nOn January 27th probe the following questions: What are the key needs of tomorrow’s search and discovery\, what are the distributed infrastructure needs and how are algorithms that give ‘top’ results validated? What are the data policy guidelines and governance thereof? What are user’s unmet needs to ‘discover’ tomorrow’s world? Do diverse human languages and values play a local role in the global search context of zeroes and ones? And is there room for a citizens fair data deal that leads to reliable and verifiable information and data trusts? How do individual (eg right to be forgotten) and collective rights (to know) make searching more public\, more transparent or more ethical by design? \nBy decentralising search & retrieval\, and by making future acts machine-processed\, and services composable in realtime\, there still remains a wide gap to fill: to gain quality and discoverability. Open standards can help. Service composability joins multiple independent sources of federated search without a single search authority point of presence. The ethical search would apply a variety of ethical filters to search results\, plus mechanisms for collective action to feed those filters\, making values transparent or visible inside future AI search. Trust benefits usage\, instead of lamenting lack of trust in commercial providers like Amazon.  In ‘The Age of Continuous Connection 24/7’ it may be time to change our unsustainable business models. \nWE WANT YOUR INPUT AND IDEAS: Go tell.edgeryders.eu \nWe invite experts to give their recommendations for NGI. Three EU funded H2020 projects in this domain join this event: NGI FORWARD\, NGI0 Discovery\, and NGI Assure.  We invite others to also join. The expected outcome is to contribute to the next generation EU research funding\, a better understanding and cohesive EU efforts to submit innovative ideas for open calls. Meeting organizers include the IoT Council & Edgeryders for NGI FORWARD\, NLnet Foundation for NGI Discovery and Assure and ELONTECH. \nRegister early: https://app.livestorm.co/made-group/dialogues-on-data-and-search-the-future-of-information-and-search \n11:00 – 16:00 | Workshops: The Future of Search\nWorkshops are on Big Blue Button\,  hosted by TU.

SUMMARY:Citizen Control of Personal Data
DESCRIPTION:New Initiative “Citizen Control of Personal Data” within the Citizen Focus Action Cluster\nOn January 27th\, 2021\, the Smart Cities Marketplace will launch its new Initiative “Citizen Control of Personal Data” within the Citizen Focus Action Cluster. We kindly invite you to join us from 15 to 17 h and learn more the initiative’s approach to handling personal data. \nEnormous changes will take place in the next few years in the field of data\, moving from the current large-corporation approach\, where personal data is collected for narrow commercial benefit\, to an approach aiming at the greater good of society and the economy. \nThe intention of the “Citizen Control of Personal Data” initiative is to contribute to speeding up the adoption\, at scale\, of common open urban data platforms\, and ensure that 300 million European citizens are served by cities with competent urban data platforms\, by 2025. The potential for citizen’s personal data to contribute to data ecosystems will be significantly enhanced by introducing secure\, ethical and legal access to this highly coveted and valuable personal data\, incorporating citizen-generated data as “city data“. \nThe “Citizen Control of Personal Data” initiative will seek to remove existing obstacles and help build the conditions and relationships whereby the citizen will be willing to share personal data with a city and with other actors in the data economy. The ambition behind this new initiative is to give the smart cities movement a boost by providing cities with access to a rich personal data pool. This pool of data\, in turn\, would stimulate further activity within the data economy\, accelerate the take-up of urban data platforms and contribute to the improvement of mobility\, health\, energy efficiency and better governance among other. \nYou can register for the initiative launch here.

SUMMARY:EU Open Source Policy Summit 2021
DESCRIPTION:OpenForum Europe and the Linux Foundation are excited to invite you to the EU Open Source Policy Summit 2021\nIt’s becoming increasingly clear that ‘Open’ must play a central role as Europe addresses its pressing digital policy challenges. Open source and open technologies drive digital transformation in practice\, and policies that support this process pave the way for European economic development and citizen empowerment. The EU Open Source Policy Summit will bring this squarely into the policy discussion. \nWith this Policy Summit\, OpenForum Europe aims to facilitate an engaged and informed dialogue between a large array of stakeholders\, who work at the intersection of politics and technology. Speakers and panelists will address the role of ‘Open’ in the green transition\, the recovery packages\, digital sovereignty and the EU’s competitiveness\, as well as the sometimes polarized views of Digital Sovereignty. \nIn the end\, we challenge ourselves to answer: how do we create a winning open source culture in Europe? \nWe look forward to enhancing the political debate at this critical juncture\, as discussions of Openness move into a deeper understanding of the strategic role Open Source will play in Europe’s digital future.

SUMMARY:DEL4ALL WORLD CAFÉ WEBINAR
DESCRIPTION:Women in Science – Emerging Technologies in an E–Learning Environment\nOn 11 February 2021 at 4:00 pm CET\, DEL4ALL is organising a World Café Webinar entitled “Women in Science – Emerging Technologies in an E–Learning Environment” as part of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. At present\, less than 30 percent of researchers worldwide are women\, and according to UNESCO data (2014 – 2016)\, only around 30 percent of all female students select STEM-related fields in higher education. Science and gender equality are both vital for technology development. Therefore\, our World Café brings together several female experts working in the field of technology to share their achievements and expertise and to discuss the value of emerging technologies for the e-learning environment. As part of the event\, DEL4ALL will also introduce its latest project findings captured in the first version of the DEL Research Agenda. \nAgenda\n16:05 – 16:10\nWelcome Speech\nDr Anne Bajart\, Deputy Head of Unit at DG CONNECT Unit G.2 Interactive Technologies\, Digital for Culture and Education\, European Commission\n \n16:10 – 16:15\nIntroduction DEL4ALL Project\nDr Monique Calisti\, CEO Martel Innovate\, DEL4ALL Coordinator \n16:15 – 16:20\nIntroduction DEL Research Agenda\nKlaudia G.

SUMMARY:NGI Forward Salon: Digital Sovereignty in eID-Solutions | Part 1
DESCRIPTION:NGI Forward Salon Digital Sovereignty in eID-Solutions – Self-sovereign\, Centralised or Privatised? Part 1\nwith Deutsches Forschungsinstitut für öffentliche Verwaltung \, FÖV \nNGI Forward WP4 Salon with organizing partner: German University of Administrative Sciences and German Research Institute for Public Administration – Programme area “Transformation of the state in the digital age”. (Prof. Dr. Mario Martini). \nSCOPE\nElectronic identity (eID) is the enabler of digital transformation: whether in business or in public administration\, citizens and companies need a convenient and secure way to identify themselves in the digital world. \nIn the long term\, however\, an electronic identity should not be limited to simply provide a digital twin to the state-issued ID document. The vision of an eID already shows great potential for revolutionizing a wide range of digital processes\, such as opening a bank account\, verifying an academic degree\, or applying for social welfare payments. \nTime is running out for the government’s own solutions\, because large technology companies have discovered the power of convenient eID solutions that allow them to collect a large amount of data. This makes it more difficult to find holistic\, interoperable solutions in which the user does not become a data supplier. At the same time\, the German administration is under time pressure due to the implementation requirement of the (Online Access Act) OZG by the end of 2022. Without authenticated citizen accounts that individuals can use to log in to the electronic administration\, fully digitized communication between the administration and citizens or companies is impossible. The rollout of OZG services is therefore directly linked to the rollout of digital identities. In a European electronic government network (Single Digital Gateway)\, interoperable solutions not only make economic sense\, but are also a legal requirement. \nIt is therefore hardly surprising that the German chancellor has made digital identity a top priority. With the support of 20 partners from science and industry\, she wants to create facts with the Optimos 2.0 project by September 2021. The stated goal is to develop eID services that enable citizens to securely release personal data to service providers – directly from one’ smartphone. At the same time\, the Ministry of Economy is promoting real-life “showcase regions” with the “Secure Identities” program – with the aim of making digital identities accessible to a relevant number of users and thus creating a state-driven alternative program to Facebook-login or other data-intensive industry solutions. \nThe federal policy strategies thus follow a common line with Brussels: At the Union level\, the eIDAS Regulation pursues the goal of generating an interoperable Europe-wide identity ecosystem from existing isolated solutions. At the core of the EU Commission’s current reform efforts is the intention to promote digital identities through suitable interface standards. \nLast but not least\, the eID card\, which has been introduced in Germany since January 1\, 2021\, represents an important impetus for cross-border legal transactions: It allows citizens from other EU countries to apply for a “digital ID card” in Germany in order to be able to identify themselves digitally in the same way as with a German electronic ID card. This also makes it clear: Anyone who does not think about interoperability and citizen-centricity from the very beginning will either promote eID solutions that are of limited help to users due to their lack of broad impact\, or solutions that users trust only to a limited extent due to questionable data usage. \nBut to what extent have legislative efforts so far been successful in turning the existing isolated solutions of individual industries into a broadly functioning ecosystem? What hurdles must an eID solution overcome in order to be as connectable as it is secure from the citizen’s perspective? How can the digital sovereignty of citizens be ensured? And how can the “German Angst” of a lack of data protection and security be reconciled with technical progress? \nSpeakers\nElizabeth M.
