SUMMARY:APIdays Barcelona
DESCRIPTION:APIs are a foundational component of modern digital architectures\, impacting every sector of the global economy. In the public sector\, APIs are a key enabler to accelerate the digital evolution of governments and its agencies. \nTherefore\, the European Commission is currently conducting the two-year study “Digital Government APIs. The road to added value Open API-driven services (APIs4DGov)”. The study investigates onto two main questions: (1) Why governments should invest in the adoption of API technologies and\, if yes\, (2) How they could adopt them. \nPlease register here. \n  \nIn collaboration with Mehdi Medjaoui\, the founder of the APIdays conferences\, the APIs4DGov team organises a networking moment and a workshop at the event in Barcelona aiming at bringing together API experts from public and private sectors.  \nThe APIdays are the world’s leading API conference series and represent a perfect opportunity to (i) exchange experiences on the development of the latest API solutions\, (ii) uncover the “secrets” of new API standards and (iii) have a full immersion in the API world. \nSelected speakers and the first twenty public sector participants who complete the APIs4DGov survey can have free entrance to the event.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Upcoming Funding Opportunities for Smart Cities
DESCRIPTION:OASC and the EU’s Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) are organising a joint webinar to give an overview of the opportunities for European cities & communities to implement so-called digital Building Blocks. The webinar\, which takes place on 5 July 2019\, will particularly focus on the Context Broker and Big Data Test Infrastructure Building Blocks. \nIn a dedicated webinar for the members of Open & Agile Smart Cities\, participants will get an overview of the CEF Digital Building Blocks and how cities can use the building blocks to deliver improved public services\, to manage data more efficiently\, and to support policy-making through better data. A particular focus will be the upcoming funding opportunities to implement two of the CEF Building Blocks. \n  \nPlease register here. \n  \n \nThe CEF Context Broker is compatible with OASC Minimal Interoperability Mechanism 1 “Context Information Management”. \nThe CEF Context Broker enables organisations (including but not limited to public administrations) to manage and share data in real-time describing “what is currently happening” within their organisations\, in the real world they manage or where they run their daily business processes. Thus\, for example\, Smart Cities can share information about what is happening in streets (e.g.\, traffic status\, quality of air data\, available parking slots\, location).  Similarly\, a packet delivery service company may share data about orders (e.g.\, current location and expected delivery time). This information describing what is currently happening is referred as “context information”. \nThe CEF Context Broker provides the FIWARE NGSI API\, which is a RESTful API enabling applications to provide updates and get access to context information. \nFor more information visit the CEF website. \n  \nCEF Big Data Test Infrastructure (BDTI) provides a set of data and analytics services from infrastructure to tools and advisory\, allowing European organisations to experiment with Big Data technologies and move towards a data-driven policy making. \nBDTI offers tools and technologies to support the different elements of data processing\, from data collection to data ingestion and transformation for processing\, analysis\, exploration and visualisation. These can be reused on a pick-and-choose basis through ready-to-use environment templates. \nFor more information visit the CEF website

More so since each European city operates in a unique context\, gathering data from different sources\, in different ways. \nThe Connecting Europe Facility offers the Context Broker building block\, which centralises\, contextualises and gives meaning to collected data. This enables people like you\, from the public administration or private sector\, to access data that is already filtered\, organised and labeled so that you could leverage on it and create smart applications. Furthermore\, the Context Broker is built on common European standards making it interoperable and sustainable. \nIf you want to extend your know-how on how you can manage your context information\, join our set of trainings and learn how to integrate the Context Broker services and knowledge into your IT department. \nRegister now for the upcoming webinars! \nContext Broker. Empowering smart innovation.

SUMMARY:Service Design for the Post-anthropocentric City
DESCRIPTION:“Ubiquitous computing\, mobile devices\, and big data come together to give rise to a new urban paradigm being celebrated by many technology corporations and municipalities alike: the smart city.” \n\n\n\nThe smart city agenda is only now starting to slowly move beyond the technology and data hype and come to terms with issues of housing affordability\, digital inclusion\, social justice. \nWith society’s current limited perspective that centres around humans\, we risk to forget how we are entangled with and connected to other living beings\, the environment\, and the wider ecosystem that keeps us alive. Can we reconceptualise the smart city as a place where people and place meet to make a net positive contribution to the world?” (Marcus Foth – Connected Urbanism and Cohabitation in the Smart City) \nAs governments and big tech companies are going to spends tons of money on amazing technology like IOT\, AR\, VR\, AI\, etc. to power up cities in order to make it an artificial organism that crunch data and take actions\, it’s easy to forget or to keep humans outside of the pictures. In this scenario\, it would be easy to quickly resort to human-centered designas a way to put people’s need back at the center as opposed to the servant technology. \nBut when it comes to city there’s so much more to take into account than the relationship between people and technology as cities exists on a wider and more complex scale and a broader ecosystem has to be taken into account. \nFor the first time\, Service Design Drinks Milan will host a visiting professor from the other side of the world: Marcus Foth\, professor of Urban Informatics at Queensland University of Technology of Brisbane will present his speech about Connected Urbanism and Cohabitation in the Smart City\, supported by Stefano Maffei\, full professor from School of Design of Politecnico di Milano and director of Polifactory. \nThe event will be held in English. Space is limited so to make sure to have a seat please arrive according to time. \n\nPlease register here. \n\n

SUMMARY:Visionary Seminar: Transformation of the City
DESCRIPTION:How will data and technology affect not only urban infrastructure but also our urban experience? \n\n\n\nThe growing potential of technology in cities is allowing for the development of so-called smart cities. Think things like traffic flow optimization or continuous monitoring of air quality. \nWe want to know\, though\, what transformations will cities themselves undergo as things evolve? What will happen to public space as we know it today? During this seminar\, six experts explain how they see cities changing from their domain. It appears that this transformation goes far beyond what people might have expected. You won’t want to miss their insights! \nPlease register here. \n  \n\nPROGRAM \n\n15:30: Registration with refreshments \n16:15: Welcome by Bart Somers\, Mayor of Mechelen\n16.25: Introduction\nJohan Merlevede\, Leuven MindGate & Pieter Ballon\, VUB Smart Cities Chair\n16.35: Smart Nation Singapore\nTBC\, Singapore Economic Development Board\n17.05: Smart City Tech & Implementations in Songdo (South Korea)\, Barcelona\, and Antwerp\nJohn Baekelmans\, imec\n17.25: Citizen behavior tracking and behavior change\nShenja Van Der Graaf\, imec-SMIT\, VUB \n17.45: Break with sandwiches \n18:15: Internal Reorganization and Digital Processes in the City\nMikael Grannas\, Mayor of Sipoo\n18:35: Green Infrastructure and the Creation of an Urban Jungle\nPiero Pelizzaro\, Chief Resilience Officer of Milan\n18:55: Transformation of Urban Space\nLeo Van Broeck\, Vlaams Bouwmeester & KU Leuven\n19:15: Debate with all speakers & mayors of Leuven and Brussels\nTBC \n20:00: Networking and reception

SUMMARY:Releasing the Power of Procurement
DESCRIPTION:Releasing the Power of Procurement – Crossing the ‘Valley of Death’ Between Pilots and Large-Scale Deployment of IoT-Enabled Services \nPlease register here. \nIn the European Union\, public procurement accounts for 14% of GDP demonstrating the high potential of public procurement to support policy objectives\, to stimulate innovation and hence\, jobs and economic growth. \nBut current public procurement processes are struggling to keep up with the fast pace of digital innovation and data-driven solutions in key application domains such as smart cities & communities\, health-care and energy. As a result\, public administrations and their communities are not reaping the full potential of digital transformation through public procurement. \nPublic procurement as a tool has largely failed to help administrations and companies cross the ‘valley of death’ for digital and data-driven solutions between small-scale experimentation and real-life scale-up across Europe. The net result is a European digital transformation with brakes on due to the inadequate risk profiles along the innovation cycles. Strategic cooperation and interoperability between public administrations across Europe can help to lower the risks for first movers while helping SMEs to create scalable markets for innovative solutions across Europe. \nThis workshop aims to \n\nStimulate a debate on the benefits and shortcomings of public procurement processes and how to fix the shortcomings to benefit both public purchasers and the local innovation ecosystem.\nDiscuss the role of open standards for public administrations and the local innovation ecosystem for procuring digital\, IoT-enabled solutions\nExplore possible ways forward in deepening the European cooperation in procurement of innovative IoT solutions and services.\nShowcase innovative procurement methods from advanced sectors as well as domain frontrunners\n\nAgenda\n09:30 – 09:45 Welcome \n\nPeter Wintlev-Jensen\, Policy Officer\, IoT Unit\, DG Connect\, European Commission\nMartin Brynskov\, Chair\, OASC / Coordinator\, SynchroniCity & NGIoT\n\n09:45 – 10:00 Setting the Scene \n\nDavor Meersman\, CEO\, OASC\n\n10:00 – 12:00 Panel debate: How Can the Public Sector Foster Innovation?

SUMMARY:Large-Scale IoT & Data Marketplaces
DESCRIPTION:Real-time data and real-time brokering of data transactions are becoming central in our increasingly data-driven societies\, linked to both economic\, social and environmental development. \nPlease register here. \n  \nBy 2025\, real-time data is projected to make up more than a quarter of all data being created\, and the vast majority will be IoT data (IDC\, 2018). This means that all sectors and all organisations need robust ways to share IoT data and orchestrate the services relying on them\, including AI-based analytics and blockchain/DLTs. \nAs we’re looking into a near future where infrastructure and value chains are increasingly linked to partnerships and ecosystems\, we see data spaces and data lakes with complex governance structures as the foundation for service delivery and meeting societal priorities. \nThis new situation must be met by similarly tuned transaction mechanisms. Whether monetised or not\, such transactions cannot happen without clear and transparent\, but also agile\, terms and conditions: service level agreements\, retention\, ownership etc. \nThe workshop will take its starting point in ecosystems where such transformative marketplaces\, or ecosystem transaction management mechanisms\, are already forming and being discussed. These include Smart Cities & Communities\, Food & Farming\, Healthcare and Automotive. \nPurpose \nThe purpose of the workshop is to bring key European stakeholders together to: \n\nDiscuss the value proposition of an ecosystem-based approach to transaction management related to IoT and data (data\, services\, components\, hardware and training)\, both monetised and non-monetised\,\nLearn from existing cases and implementations of IoT & data marketplaces and emerging needs\, including technical underpinnings and issues of governance in emerging infrastructure partnerships\,\nIdentify most promising paths to a sustainable scale-up of IoT & data marketplaces\, including key actors and instruments from both supply- and demand-side\, and taking into account the need to protect local priorities and critical infrastructure.
