Sophie Meszaros presented “Trustworthy Urban Digital Twins” a collaboration between IMEC and SMIT, whom did research around the topics: Mobility, Logistics, Air quality, Noise quality, Sustainability and Infrastructure (e.g.: subsidized group renovations) in the model of Urban Digital Twin. Sophie proceed to explain the concept of initial transformation that occurs when the experts and the public servents start discussing on what is relevant or not and the different points of view collide.

In this masterclass, Asier Gutiérrez, researcher in the Life Sciences department of the BSC-CNS, will invite the public to learn about the latest advances in Algebraic Topology applied to Neural Networks.

A wide audience, will not go into complex mathematical principles, technicalities or references to articles that might be difficult to understand. Thus, it will focus on explaining the latest developments in the referred areas and the range of possibilities from a practical standpoint, which will be accessible to all attendees.

Developed in the context of European Union ISA programme, the Sharing and Reuse Framework for IT Solutions addresses EU, national, regional and local public administrations that aim at reducing costs, increasing their efficiency and fostering interoperability by reusing, sharing or jointly developing IT solutions that meet common requirements. 

In the framework of Horizon Europe, the European Union Programme for Research and Innovation (2021-2027), the European Commission launched the Mission ‘A Soil Deal for Europe’, aiming to establish 100 Living Labs and Lighthouses to drive the transition to healthy soils by 2030.  

How to make policy making more interactive, experimental and exploratory for all by using data visualisations?

TESTA is a private managed underlying secured & trusted communication network infrastructure allowing secure information exchange capabilities for operational co-operation & collaboration between the EU Institutions, EU Agencies, public authorities located in the Member States, UK, EFTA (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland) & in the candidate countries (currently Montenegro and North Macedonia and soon Albania and Ukraine).

Since September 2022, European data spaces initiatives have been collaboratively defining the technical building blocks for data spaces across various domains. In partnership with the Data Spaces Support Centre (DSSC), this collaborative effort, has successfully identified and integrated common grounds for technical standards and software implementations presented during the event.

Developed by the Data Spaces Support Centre (DSSC), this Starter Kit serves as a practical resource for emerging data spaces. It provides guidance, reference materials, and tools to help new initiatives design and implement effective data-sharing ecosystems.
