Workshop: European Strategy for the digital transformation and innovation
14 de fevereiro 2019, 9h30 – 13h00, Room B201, ISCTE-IUL
Context and purpose
The digital transformation impacts all sectors of the economy and transforms the way we live, work and communicate. Continued investments in strategic digital capacities and infrastructures, upskilling and modernising the interaction between governments and citizens will underpin our future prosperity. European Heads of State and Government agreed (Tallin declaration, October 2017) that high performance computing and data, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, digital skills and digitisation of areas of public interest and industry were the main pillars that the EU should invest in for a strong digital economy.
In the framework of the preparation of the next Multiannual Financial Framework (2021-2027), the Commission is proposing that investment from multiple programmes will combine to address key crosscutting priorities such the digital economy, sustainability, security, migration, human capital and skills, as well as support for small businesses and innovation.
In view of the above, this workshop organised by ISCTE-IUL intends to contribute to the brainstorm and the definition of the priorities with respect to the European initiatives in digital research and innovation.
