The EU Digital Technologies and Policies (EUDTP) conference aims at bringing together researchers, professionals, scholars, and policymakers, to enable exchanges and collaborations in broad-impact digital technologies in EU society and economy. Given the nature of addressed challenges and issues, the conference is interdisciplinary, and encourages participation and exchange of different scientific disciplines, engineers (electrical and electronic, mining, mechanical), computer and data scientists, mathematicians, physicists; but also law scholars, economists, sociologists, historians, political scientists, or philosophers.
The conference will take place in Brussels for two days, and will consist of six sessions including (but not limited to) digital technology advances and applications (AI, quantum, nanotechnologies), digital infrastructures, hardware and materials (chip design, semiconductors, mining technologies, supply chains), energy and sustainability, data economy, digital rights and sovereignty, and impact of EU digital regulation.
Call for abstracts
This conference is soliciting extended abstract submissions (1p) with contributions to the different aspects related to digital technologies and policies: scientific perspectives, use cases and constraints, opportunities and risks in the EU and globally, underlying needs and requisites, social implications and regulation approaches.
High-quality papers based on extended versions of talks in the conference will be welcome for consideration at a special issue of the IEEE Transactions of Technology & Society (IEEE-TTS) journal.
