SUMMARY:ODI Summit 2021 – Data  People
DESCRIPTION:Summit 2021 –  Data <> People\nTaking place online\, this year’s ODI Summit explores the relationship between people and data. \nOver the past year\, the role that data plays in our lives has come into sharper focus: from the news stories we read to the apps where we report our health and the services we use every day. \nWe have all become ‘data people’ – more conscious than ever of the data we produce\, use and share\, and the decisions made using data about us. \nNever again can data be the preserve of an expert minority. It is increasingly the lifeblood of businesses\, communities and society at large. And when these groups work together\, the data becomes so much more valuable to everyone.

SUMMARY:Next generation of human-AI/robot systems
DESCRIPTION:ATI policy seminar on ‘Next generation of human-AI/robot systems – what role for policy?\nThe policy seminar on ‘Next generation of human-AI/robot systems – what role for policy?’ is part of a series of 8 policy seminars organised within the Advanced Technologies for Industry (ATI) project commissioned by EISMEA and the European Commission – DG GROW. \nThe project provides a systematic monitoring of technological trends and reliable\, up-to-date data on advanced technologies to properly support the implementation of policies and initiatives and finally promote a competitive European industry. \nResearch and innovation policies across Europe are actively promoting the development of AI and robotics technologies. Beyond unfolding the potential in these technologies\, policy will also need to play an important role to prepare the future workforce for the upcoming changes and mitigate the less beneficial societal and ethical related consequences of automation and human-machine interactions. Successful technological transformation has various challenges that will have to be addressed both by policy and change in industrial behaviour including trustworthy technology\, qualifications\, change management and organisation\, safety and occupational health\, liability and ethical behaviour. In this context\, the online policy seminar will aim to: \n\npresent the ATI analysis on human-robot and human AI systems and policy implications\nidentify challenges not yet addressed and point out at policy gaps\ndevelop recommendations how to improve policy.\n\nProgramme – 10:00h – 12:30h CET:\n\nWelcome and introduction to the ATI project | Marta Batalla-Masana\, European Commission\, DG GROW\nPresentation of the ATI project and its policy brief on human-machine interactions | Technopolis Group\nThe Cobots race – how to stay ahead? | Stig Yding\, Danish Technology Institute\nAI – fairness\, equality and skills development | Anne Bouverot/Tanya Perelmuter\, Fondation Abeona\, France\nAI ethics label | Bertelsmann Stiftung (tbc)\nPanel discussion\nClosing remarks and next steps | European Commission\n\nLooking forward to meeting you virtually at the event!\nRegister here: https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/ATI_AIROBOT

SUMMARY:OW2con’21
DESCRIPTION:Leveraging the European Open Source Ecosystem\nOpen-source software in modern corporate information systems is what brings together experts from around the world at OW2con’21. The central theme of OW2con’21 is “Leveraging the European Open Source Ecosystem.” \nThe world needs a vibrant European open source ecosystem. As open-source software has become mainstream how do we ensure it creates long-term value for all and enables good jobs and digital sovereignty across societies? The growth and sustainability of the ecosystem depend on the success of its stakeholders: open-source projects and developers\, open-source foundations\, systems integrators\, software vendors\, and users. We all play a part through our technology choices\, our best practices\, our engagement with other players. We each have a vested interest in the well-being of other stakeholders. OW2con’21 will address the many challenges of ensuring a sustainable European open source ecosystem.

SUMMARY:NGI Forward Salon: Lightest/Trust Infrustructure
DESCRIPTION:The NGI ESSIF-Lab project TRAIN (Trust Management Infrastructure) leverages a decentralized data protected approach for a Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) context. It proposes an infrastructure for SSI that can be used to verify conformance of the issuer to a certain policy and trust scheme. This is important because an ever-increasing number and variety of transactions are conducted digitally over the Internet. At the same time\, identity and other credential schemes are evolving towards decentralized complex and open approaches; anyone can be entitled as issuer. For all this\, trust is a central empowering factor. So how can you be sure that the entity\, be it person or organization making the transaction or issuing a credential is really who they say they are? \nThe challenge of decentralized trust is not entirely new. Trading\, for example\, has always involved trust and risk. Whether it is for barter\, or for promissory notes. Before modern communication\, when trading with someone you did not know\, you would take up references from someone you did trust. The longer the distance\, the more difficult and risky that was. Long-distance trading sometimes involved family members\, travelling and becoming established in those distant locations. In the Twenty-First Century\, sophisticated methods to provide that trust between counterparties have been developed\, but still rely on someone to provide the references. These now take the form of ‘Trusted Third Parties’ who may be regulated from within an industry itself\, or through legislation\, to provide ‘certification’. So\, how do you obtain the details of the certifications that you need to satisfy acceptable risk and build trust? \nThe EU H2020 project LIGHTest has developed a flexible approach for this challenge: global lightweight trust infrastructure providing parties of electronic transactions with automatic validation of trust based on their individual trust policies through the publication\, querying\, and cross-jurisdiction translation of information relevant in making decisions. LIGHTest empowers counterparties to establish trust and awareness of risk through recognizing the ‘Chain of Trust’ and associated certification. It can also provide automatic verification of that certification for every transaction. Verifiers are empowered to make their own trust decisions while different actors (industry organizations\, NGOs) can set up their own trust schemes\, based on established ones like eIDAS. \nFraunhofer\, SICPA\, and Validated ID will present and demonstrate the results of their work in LIGHTest and their NGI ESSIF Lab Projects.

SUMMARY:IntellIoT Event
DESCRIPTION:IntellIoT Event: Human In the Loop – a guide to successful AI\nLet’s discuss the human-machine collaboration of the future! \nWill AI outsmart the human? Or going one step further – will it make the humans redundant? Not according to the science. In fact\, researchers state that a collaboration between humans and machines is the main factor of successful next generation technology. The Human-in-the-Loop approach aims to solve the biggest problem in current AI – the machine’s lack of decisiveness when approaching an unknown situation. The question is: how to incorporate the human aspect in technology? \nOn June 15th\, the innovation experts from IntellIoT\, Startup Colors\, and the Meetup.Ai community in Berlin invite you to a knowledge-packed online event. \nJoin us in a conversation on the modern approach to human-machine collaboration and its importance in the process of developing next generation IoT solutions. \nJoining us in the conversation will be: \n\nRob van Kranenburg\, Founder of #IoTCouncil and #IoTDay\nCarina Pamminger\, Chief Project Manager at HOLO-LIGHT\n\nMore speakers coming soon. \nModerating the conversation will be Nicholas Borsotto Machado Monteiro from meetup.ai. \nAll information and registration here

SUMMARY:Leading the Digital Decade
DESCRIPTION:Leading the Digital Decade\, held 1-2 June\, is a two-day online event focused on Europe’s digital transformation towards 2030. \nWhat should the future of digital in Europe be? What should our 2030 goals be when it comes to digital transformation? How can we make sure we meet our objectives? \nThese are the main questions that Leading the Digital Decade aims to answer. The past 18 months have radically transformed Europe and the world. Because of the ongoing pandemic\, the world has digitalised faster than ever before. Digital is what has kept our society going. It has also widened the gap between those who have the means to shift to digital and enjoy its benefits and those who do not. \nAt this crossroads\, Europe must define its path going forward. Leading the Digital Decade focuses on defining this path. This two-day event is co-organised by the European Commission and the Portuguese Presidency of the Council of the European Union and will be held virtually on 1 and 2 June 2021. \nDay 1\nThe starting point of the first day’s debate is the Communication 2030 Digital Compass: the European way for the Digital Decade. Its vision is clear: everyone in Europe can and should benefit from digital. \nTo make this a reality\, we need to improve on digital skills\, infrastructure and use of technology by people\, companies and public administrations. \nDay 2\nThe second day will be dedicated to the launch of the Digital Europe Programme\, the first financial instrument of the EU to specifically finance European projects on digital. The Digital Europe Programme will accelerate the economic recovery and shape the digital transformation of Europe benefiting citizens and businesses. \nThe Digital Europe Programme will provide funding for projects in five areas: \n\nsupercomputing\nartificial intelligence\ncybersecurity\nadvanced digital skills\nuse of digital technologies across the economy and society\n\nJoin the conversation with #DigitalEU2030\nThe full programme for Leading the Digital Decade will be available soon. \nRegister for the event

SUMMARY:TRUST IN DATA?
DESCRIPTION:TRUST IN DATA? Why social innovation needs digital.\nEUSES\, Mannheim\, Day 2  10-11 am CET \nSharing data – whether personal or not – is key to social innovation and digital competitiveness. Data processing innovation relates to Europe’s sustainable growth and digital jobs.  Before the internet era data collection was slow\, top-down\, and very little data was shared let alone queried.  The internet’s growth expands broadband access such that distributed computation happens in real time on connected devices near you.  Our web business model relies on voluntary sharing of data\, when the world of internet and big data is a lot more centralized and extractive than it ever was. A few aggregators act as global online gateways to products\, services and content; they capture most of the digital value chain. With Open Data and the GDPR\, we all realize that data privacy\, data ownership and data trust has social value above and beyond business as usual. Data governance matters to individuals as well as to society as a whole.  Social innovation requires maximising socio-economic benefits of ‘being connected’\, whilst minimising the centralized control power over the web. Data asymmetries and mistrust is a growing threat to social innovation. Can we agree on our digital rights\, common safety safeguards\, prevention of identity theft\, cybercrime\, data breaches\, manipulation and malware? Because digital inclusion won’t just happen by default. \nSpeakers:\n\nDr Loretta Anania\, European Commission Next Generation Internet Unit\, moderator\nDr Andrea Renda\, Director\, Centre for European Policy Studies\, Brussels\, Belgium \nSir Geoff Mulgan\, Professor of Collective Intelligence\, University College London\, UK\nDr Michelangelo Secchi\, Centre for Social Innovation\, Coimbra\, Portugal \nProf. Elizabeth Maria Renieris\, Director\, Cybersecurity and Technology Ethics Lab\, Harvard and Stanford Universities\, USA
