SUMMARY:The Shape of Energy to come
DESCRIPTION:Energy systems are changing faster than ever and events like The Shape of Energy to Come help us understand what this transformation truly demands.\n\n
\nOn 5 December\, INESC TEC celebrates the 2nd edition of this inspiring event opening an essential space for reflection\, bringing together leading voices from research and industry to examine how Europe can build the energy systems it will depend on in the future.\n
\n\nThis year’s keynote by Professor Georges Kariniotakis sets the stage: a deep look at how innovative technologies can shape an intelligent\, flexible and sustainable energy ecosystem.\n
\n\nTwo thematic sessions will follow:\n\n
\n– Shaping Innovation Together – where INESC TEC’s industrial partners reflect on real cases of co-creation and collaborative innovation.\n\n
\n– Shaping the Grid of Tomorrow – with INESC TEC researchers showcasing emerging solutions for resilient\, future-proof energy systems.\n\n
\nThe day concludes with “Legacy & Future”\, a thoughtful intervention by Professor João Peças Lopes\, grounding this discussion in INESC TEC’s decades-long leadership in the energy field and the vision that will guide the next ones.\n\n
\nFor anyone working at the intersection of energy systems\, innovation\, and technology policy\, this is a moment to pause\, reflect\, and engage.\n\n

SUMMARY:How to write a policy brief
DESCRIPTION:Policy briefs are concise\, accessible documents that aim to communicate the practical implications of research to a particular policy audience and provide them with solutions to a specific issue. Although policy briefs are just one method to communicate information to a policy audience\, they can be a valuable communication tool when effectively written and disseminated. \nThis webinar will outline how researchers can write an effective policy brief and disseminate it so that it has policy impact. In the second part of the webinar\, participants will be given the opportunity to ask questions and try out their own policy brief concepts. \nThe webinar will be hosted by Chloe Hill\, EGU’S policy manager. It will last for one hour and conclude with an audience Q&A. This webinar will be recorded and uploaded to the EGU YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@egu \nRegister for this online event here. \nIf you have any questions about ‘How to write a policy brief’\, please contact us via webinars@egu.eu.

SUMMARY:Accelerated development: A new era for health and life science cooperation with the Global South? Public S|B (Sector Day) conference
DESCRIPTION:In Brussels and online \nAbout the theme: Among the issues that the COVID-19 pandemic brought to the surface\, global cooperation in health research emerged as an essential requirement – from concerted surveillance of emerging infectious diseases and drug manufacturing\, to knowledge transfer\, data sharing and biodiversity protection. Beyond pandemic preparedness\, the need for a broader\, structural and sustainable North-South partnership has now become obvious. In addition\, the health sector’s digitalisation rush and the growing importance of AI offer enormous opportunities to deepen North-South partnerships. Moving forward\, the key questions are where to prioritise in terms of funding\, programmes and R&I domains\, and how to ensure a coordinated approach? \nFeatured guests: On 25 June\, we will bring together key representatives from international bodies\, EU institutions\, national governments\, research and industry to discuss the steps needed to crystallise a new era for North-South cooperation in health and life sciences. Confirmed speakers include Michael Makanga\, Executive Director\, European & Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership (EDCTP); Ole Petter Ottersen\, Acting Secretary General\, The Guild & former President\, Karolinska Institutet; Irene Norstedt\, Director ‘People’\, DG RTD\, European Commission; Marleen Temmerman\, Director ‘Women’s Health’\, Faculty of Health Sciences – Aga Khan University Hospital; Srini Kaveri\, Director of India Office\, CNRS; Hilary Hanahoe\, Secretary General\, Research Data Alliance; Mario Reale\, Senior Research Engagement Officer at GÉANT\, Glaudina Loots\, Director for Health Innovation\, South Africa Department of Science and Innovation; and Rajendra Pratap Gupta\, Chairman – Dynamic Coalition on Digital Health\, United Nations’ Internet Governance Forum. \nHow to engage: While the speaker line-up is essentially complete\, we now look to our Network members to inform and inspire the wider debate on the most effective ways forward! As such\, we would be grateful if you could share details of the event with relevant faculty leads\, and/or let us know if you wish to recommend specific colleagues for us to invite. \nNB: as with all S|B Network events\, each member is allowed one participant in person – but an unlimited number of additional colleagues can follow the proceedings as online observers. For both options\, registrations are open at the following link.

SUMMARY:Indtech2024: Science and Innovation to empower Europe industrial resilience and economic security
DESCRIPTION:European industry plays a pivotal role in the twin digital and green transition. It acts as a catalyst for these changes while also being directly impacted by them. Simultaneously\, the European industry must strive to uphold their technological leadership and competitiveness in a context of increasing global competition. Indeed\, recent geopolitical and sanitary crisis highlighted the supply chain vulnerability of several key enabling technologies and critical raw materials. \nEurope’s technological capabilities are its best asset to meet the objectives of the Green Deal\, reach carbon neutrality in 2050 and ensure the leadership of its industry\, notably in the innovative materials sector. But the significance of the challenges matches the ambition. New technologies must be developed to enable the European transition to a carbon neutral economy\, but developing low and zero carbon solutions that go beyond the traditional approach will demand close collaboration between the academic and industry worlds. \n\n\nIndtech2024 will be a forum bringing together stakeholders to exchange around specific R&I and policy challenges and stimulate networking. An overarching question we would like to address during Indtech2024 is how R&D policies could be better integrated to ambitious European initiatives to make sure the future of our industry is made in Europe. More specifically\, Indtech2024 will aim to: \n\nIdentify and discuss the research and innovation challenges and opportunities related to the fields of advanced materials and manufacturing and critical raw material supply.\nIdentify\, discuss\, and showcase promising technologies and best practices contributing to the digital and green transition of the industry and the decarbonisation of the energy-intensive industries.\n\nTake stock of lessons learned at the mid-term of Horizon Europe programme and provide recommendations for the way forward\, specifically on how it could articulate better with other European initiatives. \nMore info here

SUMMARY:Table Top Exercise on Critical Maritime Infrastructure Protection (TTX CMIP)
DESCRIPTION:The TTX\, organised by the European Defence Agency (EDA)\, aims to answer the question “what to do when something happens? The exercise will involve different levels of response and will take place in 4 consecutive phases. The final product should enable all Member States to respond in a coordinated manner to incidents targeting critical maritime infrastructure and their direct and indirect consequences. \nGeneral planning: the exercise will start in January 2024 and will continue until the end of the Belgian presidency of the Council of the EU. There will be several feedback and intermediate conclusions before a final table top exercise\, which will present the results\, evaluations and recommendations on governance and policy. \nPhase 1: The exercise begins with a first phase focusing on maritime situational awareness (MSA) in each of the three participating countries\, Belgium\, the Netherlands\, and Lower Saxony (DE). \nIn this first phase\, each MSA agency will provide its perspectives on existing legal frameworks\, directives\, and command structures. These conclusions will be a first observation at national level\, at all levels of leadership involved\, in cross-border and international cooperation. In addition\, each MSA agency will share its perspective on collaboration with private actors\, “to do”\, “not to do” and best practices to improve maritime situational awareness. \nPhase 2: During this phase\, MSA agencies will meet trilaterally to discuss their assessment\, needs and recommendations\, regarding the status of the MSA\, including critical maritime infrastructure\, detection\, target evaluation criteria\, 24/7 contact points. The goal is to organize a meeting in each MSA agency\, each with a specific focus on the following topics. \n1) National and cross-border governance assessments \n2) National and cross-border recommendations on governance \n3) Policy evaluation to improve national and cross-border governance \nPhase 3: This phase includes targeted meetings with private stakeholders regarding the MSA situation\, including critical marine infrastructure. The evaluation and recommendations will complement the efforts of MSA agencies. National emergency responders for PAHO at sea are also involved in this phase and face preliminary assessment and recommendations. If\, as expected\, national first responders were already involved in Phase 1 and Phase 2\, Phase 3 will refine and consolidate assessments and recommendations and improve existing bilateral agreements and make recommendations for other legal frameworks and guidelines. \nPhase 4 will transfer the efforts of the operational staff involved (MSA and Response) to the core team which will consolidate the results\, evaluate and recommend intermediate conclusions and prepare the table-top closing exercise\, scheduled by the third week of May 2024 \nPreparing a report: The final task of the exercise sponsored by the Belgian Presidency will be a consolidated report. \nMore info here
