SUMMARY:IEEE NETSOFT 2020
DESCRIPTION:IEEE NETSOFT 2020 TO GO VIRTUAL\nAs you may be aware\, the World Health Organization officially declared the novel coronavirus COVID-19 a pandemic. This global health crisis is a unique challenge that has impacted many members of the IEEE family. We would like to express our concern and support for all the members of the IEEE community\, our professional team\, our families and all others affected by this outbreak. \nGovernments around the world are now issuing restrictions on travel\, gatherings\, and meetings in an effort to limit and slow the spread of the virus. The health and safety of the IEEE community is our first priority and IEEE is supporting these efforts. \nFollowing the advice and guidelines from healthcare officials and local authorities\, IEEE NetSoft 2020 will now be held virtually on 29 June – 3 July 2020. \nSoftware-Defined Networking (SDN)\, Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Cloud-Edge-Fog Computing are driving an unprecedented techno-economic shift in the Telecom and ICT industries. Network softwarization and programmability promise to reduce operational costs\, provide better flexibility and bring new service paradigms. In particular\, they are enabling the deployment of 5G infrastructures\, spanning from high data rate fixed-mobile services to the Internet of Things\, which is expected to accelerate the digital transformation that all the industry is witnessing. As a result\, new service models and new value chains will emerge\, leading to novel business models and significant socio-economic impact. \nConsidering this important trend\, the SDN Initiative that was running in 2014-2017 under the Future Directions Committee of IEEE decided to launch a new conference that was capturing the important development in the scope of softwarized networks. The International Conference on Network Softwarization\, aka NetSoft was then created and had its first event in April 2015 in London\, UK. \nIn 2020\, NetSoft is organized around the theme Bridging the gap between AI and Network Softwarization.

SUMMARY:EUCNC 2020
DESCRIPTION:EuCNC 2020: The Connectivity Revolution\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEuCNC 2020 goes Virtual\nDue to the world COVID-19 pandemic\, the Steering Committee of EuCNC 2020 has decided to change the format of the conference to an on-line virtual one\, instead of the usual face-to-face physical one in Dubrovnik.  In this new format\, there will be no Workshops\, Tutorials and Special Sessions.  On the other hand\, papers submitted to Regular Sessions that are accepted (the review process is being finalised) will be invited to be presented in an on-line mode\, after which will be submitted to IEEE Xplore as usual; accepted posters will also be presented on-line.  The format of Keynotes and Panels is being finalised with the speakers.  Further details will be provided as soon as possible.  We do regret all the inconveniences that this decision causes\, but we expect that all colleagues understand that it was not feasible to hold the conference in the usual format. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEuCNC 2020 is the 29th edition of a successful series of a conference in the field of telecommunications\, sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society and the European Association for Signal Processing\, and supported by the European Commission. This conference is one of the most prominent communications and networking conferences in Europe\, which efficiently brings together cutting-edge research and world-renown industries and businesses. The conference focuses on various aspects of 5G communications systems and networks\, including cloud and virtualisation solutions\, management technologies\, and vertical application areas. It targets to bring together researchers from all over the world to present the latest research results\, and it is one of the main venues for demonstrating the results of research projects\, especially from successive European R&D programmes co-financed by the European Commission.

SUMMARY:STOA Roundtable on Digital Sovereign Identity
DESCRIPTION:This event will take place by video conference and can be followed by webstream \nIn the digital age\, citizens need to manage a range of online identities that are linked\, in different ways\, to their offline identity. In managing these identities and entering into agreements\, citizens navigate a complex legal and technical infrastructure. As digital identities become increasingly important\, it is worth considering how this infrastructure can be made more trustworthy\, empowering users while increasing the availability of data and ensuring citizens’ safety and privacy. This roundtable discussion will examine novel technologies and cutting-edge ideas about how to build such a trust infrastructure\, including public policies\, legal frameworks\, business models and technical standards. \nThis roundtable is organised and hosted by the Panel for the Future of Science and Technology (STOA) at the European Parliament in cooperation with ELONTech and the IoT Council in the context of the work on identity of the Strategy Team of Next Generation Internet\, a European Commission initiative to reimagine and reengineer the internet for the third millennium and beyond. \nProgramme \n15:00-15:05: Introductory remarks \n\nEva KAILI\, MEP\, Chair of the Panel for the Future of Science and Technology (STOA)\n\n15:05-15:45: Experts’ presentations and Q&A \n\nRemy KNECHT\, COO of ITSME.be\nDaniel DU SEUIL\, Convenor European Self Sovereign Identity Framework (EBSI)\nLoretta ANANIA\, Scientific Officer at DG Connect\, European Commission\nThibaut VERBIEST\, Head of Regulatory Affairs Europe & Africa at Diginex\, ELONTech Advisor\nPetros KAVASSALIS\, Associate Professor at University of the Aegean\, ELONTech Advisor\n\n15:45-16:25: Discussion \n16:25-16:30: Closing remarks \n\nIvars IJABS\, MEP\, 2nd Vice-Chair of the Panel for the Future of Science and Technology (STOA)\n\nFollow the webstreaming here.\n© Shutterstock

SUMMARY:Making sense of a COVID-19 world
DESCRIPTION:NGI Forward Webinar – Making sense of a COVID-19 world: applying collective intelligence to big data.\nAs we at NGI Forward watched SARS-CoV-2 cut into our worlds\, we felt the same as everybody else. We feared for loved ones\, and for the long-term freedom and prosperity of our societies. We felt powerless\, and anxious in the face of uncertainty. We still do. \nBut\, at some point along the way\, we realized there was something we could do. We have in our midst a team of data scientists. When the pandemic hit\, Kristof and Michal were analysing trends in the evolution of Internet technology. Theirs is a big data method: they do text analysis on large repositories of academic papers\, news articles\, social media. We realized we could use the same method to investigate the virus and its companion illness. It would be like redirecting our searchlight onto a new target. \nSo we did that. In the space of only a few weeks\, Kristof and Michal came back with results\, neatly arranged in an interactive website. And that’s where we need your help. \nIn this webinar\, we will get together and question the data. Let’s look at them\, turn them around in our heads\, interrogate each other on their possible meaning. Let’s formulate hypotheses\, and see if we can think of ways to test them. Kristof and Michal can transform them into queries and visualization in real-time\, or close enough. In other words\, let’s augment big data analysis with collective intelligence methods. It will be a way for us to learn more about both COVID-19 and this particular big data methodology.

SUMMARY:TETRA WEBINAR
DESCRIPTION:Where to get money – investors\, grants or crowdfunding?\nWhen you have a great idea\, funding is nearly always the sticking point. How can you raise money to get it started? If you have a tech-based idea\, you may have an easier time attracting attention from venture capitalists or angel investors\, but as more and more startups work that angle\, finding the right investor is harder than ever. So how could you get your idea off the ground?In our webinar\, we will talk about 3 different ways to fund your idea – be it attracting an angel investor\, crowdfunging or grants. \nFirst\, who exactly is an angel and where do they invest? When should your startup choose an investor? An experienced angel investor and a founder of a VC Fund\, Riivo Anton\, who has invested in many different early-stage companies will give you an introduction to angel investing and answer your most burning questions about this form of funding.Second\, if you have a groundbreaking idea and you’re ready to campaign for it\, crowdfunding is the way to go – a number of startups have found their first success thanks to platforms like Kickstarter and Indiegogo that helped them raise investments as well as visibility and reach. Alternative financing for businesses across Europe has increased considerably in recent years\, becoming an important source of finance\, but it can still be slightly confusing which one to choose and whether it s really for you. \nWe will introduce some tools available to help you navigate in this world. \nThird\, grants offer the opportunity for your organisation to bring in new funding that does not need to be paid back! It is important to remember\, however\, that grants are competitive. A lot of time and preparation are required to find grant opportunities\, plan a project\, and then develop a proposal. An expert in grants from Civitta will introduce various European grants available and answer all of your questions on how to get one. \nFor more info: https://business.ngi.eu/news-events/webinars/webinar-3-where-to-get-money-investors-grants-or-crowdfunding-/ \nRegistration at: https://meetinglab.zoho.eu/meeting/register?sessionId=1294616560 \nAgenda\nWelcome and introduction to TETRA project\nKirsten Virks\, TETRA Project Coordinator 5 mins \nWho are angel investors and where to find them?\nRiivo Anton\, United Angels VC 10 mins \nCrowdfunding and other alternative financing options. How to choose?\nRamona Dremljuga\, Altfinator Project Coordinator 10 mins \nGrants – funding that you don’t need to pay back.\nKadri Adrat\, Civitta 10 mins \nQ&A session 10 mins \nWrap-up and upcoming TETRA events\nKirsten Virks\, TETRA Project Coordinator 5 mins \n

SUMMARY:AI for Good - webinar series
DESCRIPTION:The AI for Good Webinar Series is a free\, live series of talks\, interviews and panels\, featuring inter-disciplinary experts whose ideas\, insights and solutions can help humanity leverage AI for good. The series will draw upon expertise from the AI for Good Global Summit community to share the latest developments in AI\, unique insights and promising use cases on global challenges from health to the environment and reducing inequalities. \n\nCOVID-19: Combining crowdsourcing and AI to tackle the pandemic\n14:00 – 15:30 Geneva | 08:00 – 09:30 New York | 05:00 – 06:30 San Francisco | 20:00 – 21:30 Beijing | 15:00 – 16:30 Moscow | 17:30 – 19:00 New Delhi | 19:00 – 20:30 Jakarta \nCrowdsourcing is often associated with the darker side of AI: clickworkers in sweatshops filtering out illegal content from social media sites\, to help train bots that will ultimately make the clickworkers redundant. In this session\, we look at some of the more positive synergies between AI and crowdsourcing\, through the lens of the coronavirus pandemic. \nOnline crowdsourced events such as the EUvsVirus hackathon held in April with over 20\,000 participants have proliferated under the current global lockdown\, bringing with them new lessons for how AI can contribute to better organizing large scale collaborations between humans. At the scale of citizen-driven science for Covid\, projects have emerged that combine AI and crowdsourcing to extract vital information from the flood of literature being produced or train algorithms that can analyse social media for important trends. As the EC launches a new initiative for grassroots crowdsourcing to tackle the SDGs\, this panel will discuss how AI can help crowds achieve more\, how crowds can help improve AI\, and where this marriage of people and machines might have the most impact on Covid-related research and innovation. \n\nCrowdsourcing – large numbers of humans performing micro-tasks – is often associated with the darker side of AI: clickworkers in sweatshops filtering out images from social media sites\, to help train bots that will ultimately make the clickworkers redundant.

SUMMARY:TETRA WEBINAR
DESCRIPTION:The contribution of NGI in re-design the post COVID-19 society\nWhat has been the contribution of the internet during the world lockdown?  What worked and what didn’t work? What are the emerging needs of the post COVID-19 society? How those needs can be addressed while respecting the fundamental values of privacy\, participation and diversity? What can be the contribution of the Next Generation Internet (NGI) initiative for innovative human internet services? \nThis webinar will promote an interactive reflection to bridge the NGI mission with the rapid evolving needs of the post COVID-19 society. Together with the NGI community we will identify the emerging opportunities for NGI visionary start-ups\, researchers and developers. \nThe Next Generation Internet (NGI) initiative aims at developing a more human-centric Internet supporting the values of openness\, decentralisation\, inclusiveness\, and protection of privacy while also giving the control back to the end-users\, in particular of their data\, in order to increase trust in the Internet. This requires more transparent services\, more intelligence\, greater involvement and participation\, leading towards an Internet that is more open\, robust\, more interoperable and more supportive of social innovation. In doing so\, NGI engages Internet’s best innovators in addressing tech opportunities as well as validate and test relevant minimum viable products and services in real market conditions. \nFor more info: https://business.ngi.eu/news-events/webinars/webinar-2-the-contribution-of-ngi-in-re-design-the-post-covid-19-society/ \nParticipate at: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82514949705?pwd=bmRjNjZsdTVPUld5OWNsRjF6bWIwZz09\nPassword: 272831 \nAgenda\nWelcome and introduction to TETRA project – presentation\nKirsten Virks\, TETRA Project Coordinator 5 mins \nLet’s know each other – Interactive session\nLouis Ferrini and Susanna Albertini (moderators)\, FVA new media research 2 mins \nVideo 3 mins \nOverview of the webinar concept and expected outcomes\nLouis Ferrini and Susanna Albertini (moderators)\, FVA new media research 2 mins \nLet’s know each other – Interactive session with participants\nLouis Ferrini and Susanna Albertini (moderators)\, FVA new media research 2 mins \nWhat are the Next Generation Internet (NGI) values? – Presentation and interactive session with participants\nSusanna Albertini\, FVA new media research 5 mins \nWhat are the megatrends emerged in the last 2 months that will impact on the future internet? –Presentations and interactive session with participants\nLouis Ferrini\, FVA new media research 5 mins\nMonique Calisti\, NGI4ALL 5 mins\nJim Clarke\, NGI Atlantic 5 mins\nMirko Ross\, NGI Pointer 5 mins\nIwa Stefanik\, NGI Explorers 5 mins\nKatja Bego\, NGI Forward 5 mins\nEster Liquori\, GhostWriter.AI 5 mins\n \nHow Next generation internet values could be connected to these megatrends to contribute to a better society for the post COVID-19? – Round table and interactive session with participants\nLouis Ferrini and Susanna Albertini (moderators)\, FVA new media research 10 mins\nMonique Calisti\, NGI4ALL\nJim Clarke\, NGI Atlantic\nMirko Ross\, NGI Pointer\nIwa Stefanik\, NGI Explorers 5 mins\nKatja Bego\, NGI Forward 5 mins\nEster Liquori\, GhostWriter.AI \nWrap-up and details of future webinars in the series\nKirsten Virks\, TETRA Project Coordinator 3 mins \n\nDid you miss the webinar?\nSee the recorded session here below and download the presentations:\nThe contribution of NGI in re-design the post COVID-19 society (pdf)\nMentimeter results (pdf)
