SUMMARY:BrainBloC kennissessie
DESCRIPTION:BrainBloC data & experience lab. \nIn hub Twinning op de TU/e campus Is afgelopen jaar een heel tof BrainBloc data & experience lab opgezet voor datagedreven organiseren. Binnen dit experience lab is er vooral aandacht voor ecosystemen rondom digitalisering\, internet of things (sensoring)\, blockchain\, artificial intelligence\, de digitale lopende band en nieuwe business- en operating models. Je kunt hier ontdekken\, bewust worden\, kennis tot je nemen\, vaardigheden ontwikkelen en de laatste tools leren kennen. Kortom\, alles wat je nodig hebt voor je transformatie naar een duurzame\, digitale en decentrale FutureNext. \n\n\nIn een RTL televisie-uitzending\, opgenomen in ons nieuwe lab in hub Twinning krijg je een indruk wat we bijvoorbeeld kunnen betekenen voor samenwerkingspartner Logistics Community Brabant (LCB) en de logistieke sector op het gebied van datagedreven logistiek. Omdat concepten zoals internet of things\, smartcontracts\, blockchain\, artificial intelligence en de digitale lopende band voor de meeste mensen abstract zijn\, wordt via bijvoorbeeld simulatie\, demonstratie\, gaming en lego bouwstenen inzichtelijk gemaakt wat deze concepten inhouden en wat je er als professional en organisatie mee kunt. \nIn het BrainBloC data & experience lab bieden we ook leerwerkprogramma’s aan om de nieuwe wijze van organiseren te leren en toe te passen. Tenslotte organiseren we webinars\, workshops\, trainingen en expertmeetings. Hierin speelt datawijsheid en datagedreven organiseren een belangrijke rol met de vraag: wat zijn data en hoe kun je vraag en aanbod van data het beste organiseren. \nHoe kun je deelnemen?\nRegelmatig worden gratis en vrijblijvende kennismakings- en verkenningssessies georganiseerd in ons BrainBloC data & experience lab. In slechts een dagdeel ontdek je wat data zijn en hoe je deze het beste kunt organiseren: niet zozeer binnen je organisatie\, maar binnen een supply chain of ecosysteem. Daarnaast bieden we arrangementen aan voor organisaties of groepen professionals. \nBezoek het data & experience lab\nBij voldoende deelnemers is het data lab in principe elke eerste maandag van de maand van 13:00-17:00 geopend of in overleg op andere tijden. Je moet je wel aanmelden. Na aanmelding ontvang je nadere informatie. Wil je als groep deelnemen\, neem dan contact met ons op. \nWe adviseren om voor het bezoek aan ons BrainBloC data & experience lab\, het gratis lunchwebinar ‘Datawijsheid‘ te volgen. \nWil je meer informatie? Neem dan contact met ons op. \n\n\nRTL Uitzending

SUMMARY:The EIT Digital Challenge 2022 is on the lookout for the best European deep-tech scaleups: are you one of them?
DESCRIPTION:The EIT Digital Challenge\, the leading competition for European digital deep tech companies\, is now accepting applications. \nFast-growing start-ups with existing customers – so called scaleups – are invited to apply in one of five thematic areas: Digital Tech\, Digital Cities\, Digital Industry\, Digital Wellbeing and Digital Finance. \nThe best five companies will receive a full year of tailored support from the EIT Digital Accelerator team\, worth €50\,000. The application deadline is 19 September 2022. \n“The EIT Digital Challenge aims to identify the best European deep tech entrepreneurs and help them scale up their businesses internationally\, supporting the European deep tech ecosystem. We will select the top 20 companies  and invite them to an exclusive closed-door event at the end of October where they will have the opportunity to pitch to a jury of high-profile corporates and investors\,” says Diva Tommei\, Head of the EIT Digital Accelerator. \nThe five winners will get coached for investor readiness and then be introduced to top investors from a network of 1000+ VCs from all over Europe. They will also get market readiness coaching and strategic go-to-market support\, facilitating access to international prospects. \nIn addition to that\, the winners will gain access to EIT Digital’s pan-European innovation network of 350+ partners and enjoy great international visibility by means of EIT Digital’s network channels. \n“When we took part in the Challenge\, last year\, we were really impressed by the level of the companies that we saw pitching. That made us even prouder of being selected as winners. Afterwards\, the support of the EIT Digital Accelerator helped us promote and scaleup our technology at the international level\, introducing us to other top European players\,” says Maxine Roper\, CEO of Connecting Food\, the company that won the 2021 edition. \nSince its launch in 2014\, the competition has attracted thousands of applications from more than 33 European countries. Many of the winning scaleups have moved on to become internationally successful companies. \nProminent award winners include KONUX\, Medicus.AI\, SidekickHealth and Connecting Food. \nHow to apply\nThe deadline for applications is 19 September 2022.

SUMMARY:New workshop: Data Ethics and Law by JADS MKB Datalab
DESCRIPTION:Who’s responsibility is it to decide whether something is allowed to be analysed with data? Is it the data scientist? Is it the legal employee at an organisation? Is it the CEO? \n “If not you\, as a data scientist\, then who is responsible to raise ethical and law related questions?” \nThis workshop promises to provide profound insights into essential aspects of data science that are often overlooked. Given the significance of this subject in our field\, we cordially invite you to join us in exploring how we\, as future data scientists\, can responsibly handle data and navigate ethical challenges. This workshop is given by a Floris de Vriend\, lawyer at Banning\, and Noëlle Cicilia\, data ethical expert at Brush.ai. \nDuring this workshop we will explore topics such as: \n\nThe definition of personal data\nHow do I know if I am processing data in an ethical way?\nWhat are some main legal rules of thumb to take into account?\nData sharing\nObtaining consent for sharing personal information\nDatabase rights (sui generis)\n\nThe goal is to enhance your awareness of what can be achieved with data and what is ethically and legally permissible. By showing some real-world cases\, we hope to help you understand the decisions you have to take into account before working with data. \nWe look forward to welcoming you all on October 10th to grow together as conscious and ethically-minded data scientists. Deadline for registration is October 3rd. Registration is possible by using the following link: https://www.jadsmkbdatalab.nl/data-ethics-law-workshop/. Everyone is welcome\, so please invite other colleagues or fellow students too! \nTogether\, we can make a positive impact in our field!
