CONNECT University Summer School 2021
CONNECT University
[https://ec.europa.eu/futurium/en/connect-university] is the flagship
knowledge-sharing project of the European Commission’s Directorate
General on Communication Networks, Content and Technologies (DG
CONNECT)
[https://ec.europa.eu/info/departments/communications-networks-content-and-technology_en].
The initiative presents innovative technologies, closely connected
with EU policies, to the general public and showcases the latest
digital trends and developments. 

The aim of the project is to foster inspiration, identify
opportunities and threats, and to enable cooperation between the EU
institutions, industry, academia, and international organisations. 

This year, CONNECT University is organising the sixth edition of the
Summer School, which will take place from 21 June until 2 July. The
event will focus on climate change, in particular, and the creation of
a sustainable and prosperous digital future. Moreover, it will
include: 

 	* Presentations of high-level experts from various EU Institutions,
industry, and academia on cutting-edge technologies that help mitigate
climate change for instance through a greener digital system, or in
helping to reduce carbon emissions;
 	* Use cases that demonstrate how Artificial Intelligence (AI) or
High-Performance Computing support a major societal challenge like
this one;
 	* Examples of the increasingly sustainable and efficient digital
infrastructures and technologies themselves. 

Join this opportunity to learn and share knowledge on climate change
and the digital transformation. Find the programme and register via
