Shaping Our Digital Future: From Vision to Implementation
This was 2 years ago
LocationHybrid event: Renaissance Hotel Brussels and online
ProgrammesThe current health and economic crisis has contributed to accelerating the digital transformation process. On the one hand this is good news as it led to a quantum leap in effectiveness and efficiency as well, when developing “smart solutions”. On the other hand, is there a price we pay for these benefits?
The NTNU European Conference will explore this double edge of digitalization around various issues:
- Which future are we creating according to the designed strategies and priorities?
- How will enhanced digitalisation impact people's daily lives, products, and services?
- What will be the role and contribution that Education and Research can provide to develop the needed amount of Innovation to fulfil the targeted objectives?
These and other questions will be addressed during the conference starting with a peek into the future and covering specific case studies. A final panel will discuss the role of the involved stakeholders and the tools that will contribute to achieving the digital transformation objectives. More about the conference

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport
Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.
At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
