Place: Aalborg University Copenhagen, Denmark

Organized by Center for Communication, Media and Information technologies (CMI), Aalborg University Copenhagen, Denmark

Conference website: http://www.cmi.aau.dk/events/CMI+Events/11th-cmi-international-conference--2018.cid356131

DESCRIPTION

In the EU, the creation of a digital economy and a Digital Single Market are seen as drivers of future innovation, competitiveness and growth. These ideas are enshrined in the EU 2020 strategy and are researched in a number of projects, including the Baltic SEA Regional project, Digital Innovation Network (DIGINNO). The project is aimed at promoting uptake of ICT in the business sector, developing innovative digital public services and facilitating Digital Single Market related policy discussions on Baltic Sea Region level.

In addition to the digitization initiatives within the Baltic Sea Region, different EU countries have embarked upon digitization policies, technology and market initiatives aimed at creating digital economies. These policies and initiatives are aimed at facilitating the uptake of ICTs and digital technologies in the business sector and the facilitation of digitized public service delivery. However, EU countries are not at par in the development of these policies, technologies, services, markets and other initiatives. This creates an opportunity for a forum where different EU countries can exchange ideas on digitization policy development and the facilitation of certain digitization initiatives.

This conference presents a forum for this opportunity. The conference is organized in partnership with the DIGINNO project. At this conference, the prospects and challenges towards digitization initiatives within the EU will be discussed. These prospects and challenges will be discussed within the policy, relevant technology, and infrastructure and market context. The conference will enable the identification of best practices and the sharing of ideas via paper presentation sessions. It will also enable brainstorming on these issues via panel sessions.

Participants will come from academia, businesses, digitization networks and government agencies. The participants of the conference will benefit from speakers and participants within and outside Europe.
