SUMMARY:Building Europe's Digital Sovereignty: the role of open source\, edge computing and Gaia-X
DESCRIPTION:In early March 2021\, the European Commission presented its 2030 Digital Compass\, a concrete vision and specific targets for Europe to become a leader in the digital space over the next decade. The document acknowledged Europe’s vulnerabilities\, its increased dependency on critical\, often non-EU based\, technologies\, and the reliance on a few big tech companies\, with less than 4% of the top online platforms being European. That digital transition\, in which the European Union has agreed to invest at least a 20% of the Recovery and Resilience Facility\, requires Europe to strengthen its own cloud infrastructure and capacities and to develop strategic technologies. In this virtual event we will discuss with several experts the role that open source\, edge computing and GAIA-X are expected to play in the process of building Europe’s digital sovereignty\, and both the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMODERATOR\nJordi Guijarro: Cyber Security Innovation Director at i2CAT Foundation\, GAIA-X Association. \n\n\n\n\n\nPARTICIPANTS\nStéfane Fermigier: Co-chair of the French National Council for Free and Open Source Software (CNLL). \nRaquel Jorge Ricart: Fulbright Fellow\, Elliott School of International Affairs\, George Washington University. \nJosé Manrique López de la Fuente: CEO of Bitergia\, CHAOSS Community. \nAlberto P. Martí: VP of Open Source Community Relations at OpenNebula\, GAIA-X Association. \nShuaib Siddiqui: i2CAT Foundation Research Coordinator\, GAIA-X Association. \nAdam Smith: Managing Consultant for Digital Sovereignty & Government Cloud at HiSolutions. \n\n  \nYou can register for the event here.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Softwarization and Virtualization of Optical Access Networks (OptSoft)
DESCRIPTION:During the 22th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks\, which will take place next July in Bari\, Italy\, the i2CAT Foundation will organize a workshop on ‘Softwarization and Virtualization of Optical Access Networks (OptSoft)’. \nIn evolution of telecommunication networks toward 5G technology\, optical networks include some unique features such as high-capacity\, low-latency and low cost\, demonstrate itself as a potential option for backhauling and accessing solutions. To maximize the benefits of optical networks\, besides all other challenges\, it’s important to addresses two main issues\, namely softwarization and virtualization. Software Defined Networking-SDN and Network Function Virtualization-NFV technologies\, are the main enablers for opening the way for an efficient operation and management of networks. They pave the way for an improved management of the resource usage\, bandwidth allocation\, Quality of Service (QoS) monitoring and enforcement\, and power consumption. \nThe aim of this workshop is to present recent research results targeting the softwarization of the optical communication systems to improve flexibility and efficiency of network operations aligned with 5G networks.

SUMMARY:Col·laboratori Cat Sud Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Presentation event for Col·laboratori Cat Sud\, an initiative promoted by the Department for Digital Policy and Public Administration of the Government of Catalonia with the support of the i2CAT Foundation. \nIn recent months\, the Cat Sud Collaboratory has advanced in the definition and construction of new structures for digital social innovation: labs and collaboratories. Currently\, these structures are key for the socio-economic reactivation and the change of paradigm that we need both globally and as a country\, to face the global pandemic and a subsequent socio-economic crisis that adds to the ecological crisis\, as well as others. \nLabs and regional collaboratories become mechanisms of change to weave the future together. \nDuring this meeting\, attendees will learn about the experience of the Col·laboratori Catalunya Sud\, about labs and real experiences of cooperation. \nThe event will be online. \nREGISTER HERE. \n  \n—————– \nPROGRAM \n11:00 – 11:15 Welcome \n\nNoemí Llauradó Sans\, President of the Diputació de Tarragona\nMaria José Figueras\, Rector of the Universitat Rovira i Virgili\nJordi Puigneró\, Minister for Digital Policy and Public Administration of the Government of Catalonia and president of the i2CAT Foundation\n\n11:15  Presentation of the Cat Sud project \n\nArtur Serra\, deputy director of the i2CAT Foundation\n\n11:30 Deployment of Demos and future projects \nModerator: Josep M.

SUMMARY:Space Intersects Internet Workshop:  Into the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Constellations Era
DESCRIPTION:Location (onsite and online): \n– Onsite location: Casa Llotja – Barcelona\, Passeig d’Isabel II\, 1\, 08003 Barcelona \n– Online presence with engagement platform Zoom\, provided upon registration –> We reached the maximum number of online participants. Any further registrations for online attendance will be waitlisted. \nRegister here: https://forms.gle/zfJBUTfQ4XiKnR949 \nDate:  Thursday 27th\, February 2020 from 15h – 18:45h (CET) (9am -12:45 pm EST/6am-9:45am PST) \n\nVIRTUAL Workshop Outline\nAs we enter the 2020s\, space and internet technologies are converging. We find ourselves at the dawn of a space Internet race. Technology giants like SpaceX\, Softbank\, Amazon\, Google\, Virgin\, and Facebook will spend tens of billions of dollars over the next few years to launch\, operate\, and replace thousands of satellites in LEO. Well-capitalized and visionary entrepreneurs are shaking up the satellite industry with new LEO constellations offering terabytes of capacity at a fraction of the cost of previous satellite networks. The stakes are high not only for incumbent satellite operators\, but also for the broader Internet ecosystem including terrestrial and submarine network operators\, wholesalers\, and data centers owners. \nThis Space Internet workshop will feature expert insights and debate by ecosystem players on the potential opportunities and threats this space race presents. Experts will share insights gained from hands-on experience in LEO deployments and panelists will debate technology and investment drivers including demand-side economics\, research\, regulations\, and the potential interplay with 5G. Participants will leave the workshop equipped with the knowledge and perspectives needed to begin mapping out strategies to thrive in this new environment. \nMain Topics of Discussion: \n– Review of Space Internet (LEO focus) technologies and LEO state of the art\n– Key players\, business drivers\, research\, investment\, go-to-market strategies\, and start up landscape\n– Competitive threats and partnership opportunities: Telecom operators\, Submarine\, Data Centers\n– LEO investments dynamics\, space law considerations and demand side overview \nOrganizers: \nDr. Riad Hartani\, Partner\, Xona Partners\, riad@xonapartners.com \nDr. Sergi Figuerola\, CTIO i2CAT\, sergi.figuerola@i2cat.net \nWorkshop Participants\nRepresentation from LEO R&D teams\, LEO constellation representatives\, Space Agencies\, LEO startups\, TMT investors and law firms.
