SUMMARY:MyData Online Symposium: Human-centric AI between Innovation and Compliance
DESCRIPTION:**Video recording and presentations were sent to participants. MyData Members can access them via member opportunities and resource board (login required).** \n\n\n\nRecent developments in AI have sparked both enthusiasm and concern about people’s privacy and digital self-determination. The EU has introduced landmark legislation to address these risks\, but it remains unclear how this regulation will be implemented and what its practical implications will be for companies and individuals. At the same time\, several technology providers are actively innovating with novel AI applications to empower individuals and help organizations meet their legal obligations. The signalling effect of EU legislation and the borderless character of digital technologies suggest a complicated relationship between regulatory and business activities in Europe and abroad. \n\n\n\nThis online symposium will take stock of the rapidly evolving AI landscape\, both in terms of technologies and regulations. Expert speakers will offer perspectives on key aspects of the AI ecosystem\, covering ethics\, law\, business innovation\, and human empowerment. The expert presentations will be followed by a moderated discussion on the implications of European regulation and innovation for the rest of the world. \n\n\n\nParticipation in the symposium is free\, but registration is required to save a spot. \n\n\n\nJoin the symposium\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAgenda:\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTIME (CET)TopicSpeakers9.00-9.15Opening session9.15-10:45Global trendsSpeakers will present the latest trends and developments in ethics\, business\, and regulation\, and how they shape the potential for a human-centric approach to AI.Tobias Bräutigam\, partner at the law firm Bird & BirdVirginia Ghiara\, Senior Research Manager at FujitsuJamie Smith\, Founder at Customer Futures10.45-11.00Break11.00-12.00Innovation at the edge:A presentation of use cases and business cases at the bleeding edge of a human-centric approach to AI.Harri Ketamo\, Founder and Chairman at HeadaiYngvi Karlson\, Co-founder & CGO at Kin AIKai Kuikkaniemi\, Co-founder and Head of Product at Cadentia TechnologiesTuomas Syrjänen\, Co-founder and Chairman at Futurice12.00-13.00Lunch and networking:Break with optional facilitated networking13.00-13.45Empowering Individuals & Society \nin the Age of Generative AI:A facilitated conversation between three leading thinkers about how we should make sense of the current environment\, and what we can do to strengthen the potential for individual empowerment and social value in the age of generative AI.Astha Kapoor\, Director of the Aapti InstituteNitin Sawhney\, Professor of Practice at Aalto UniversityMiapetra Kumpula-Natri\, Finnish parliamentarian and former EU MEP13.45-14.00Closing session\n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\nInfo of more speakers will be added later. \n\n\n\nTobias BräutigamData Protection and Regulation Partner\, Bird & Bird Visit Website (opens in a new tab)Visit LinkedIn account (opens in a new tab)\n\n\n\nVirginia GhiaraResearch Manager\, Fujitsu Visit Website (opens in a new tab)Visit LinkedIn account (opens in a new tab)\n\n\n\nJamie SmithFounder\, Customer Futures Visit Website (opens in a new tab)Visit LinkedIn account (opens in a new tab)\n\n\n\nHarri KetamoFounder and Chairman\, Headai    Visit Website (opens in a new tab)Visit LinkedIn account (opens in a new tab)\n\n\n\nYngvi KarlsonCo-founder & CGO\, KIN AI Visit Website (opens in a new tab)Visit LinkedIn account (opens in a new tab)\n\n\n\nKai KuikkaniemiCo-founder and Head of Product\, Cadentia Technologies    Visit Website (opens in a new tab)Visit LinkedIn account (opens in a new tab)\n\n\n\nTuomas SyrjänenCo-founder and Chairman\, Futurice    Visit Website (opens in a new tab)Visit LinkedIn account (opens in a new tab)\n\n\n\nAstha KapoorCo-founder\, Aapti Institute    Visit Website (opens in a new tab)Visit LinkedIn account (opens in a new tab)\n\n\n\nNitin SawhneyProfessor of Practice\, Aalto University Publications: – Role of AI Regulatory Sandboxes and MLOps for Finnish Public Sector Services (2023)– Emerging AI Discourses and Policies in the EU: Implications for Evolving AI Governance (2023)– Enhancing Conversations in Migrant Counseling Services: Designing for Trustworthy Human-AI Collaboration (2024) Photo credit: Saku Metsärinne Visit Website (opens in a new tab)Visit LinkedIn account (opens in a new tab)\n\n\n\nMiapetra Kumpula-NatriMP in the Parliament of Finland\, ex-MEP at the European Parliament Visit LinkedIn account (opens in a new tab)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nClick here to join the Symposium\nBecome a MyData Member\n\n\n\nIn case the button doesn’t work\, check out the details to join belowLink to join the Zoom Meeting:https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87958889213?pwd=R0h543eeZJRMCvoqjl4ecFxzIZoXFi.1Meeting ID: 879 5888 9213Passcode: 616856—Find your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kcjXQ2BiwT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsors\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBecome a MyData Member\n\n\n\n\nDownload our member benefits brochure.\n\n\n\n Not a MyData member yet?

SUMMARY:MyData Town Hall - EU Roadmap - report back from EC roundtable
DESCRIPTION:This Town Hall will review our draft Roadmap for the European Commission\, intended to inform and support the Commission’s work to define the European Data Union Strategy\, which will guide EC policymaking and implementation in the years to come.We will begin the Town Hall by discussing the draft Roadmap we presented to the EC in our closed roundtable earlier this month. Our key assertion there was that a human-centric approach of empowering the individual user\, consumer and citizen with control over data about them is the best way to ensure that measures for European digital sovereignty and competitiveness are aligned with European values. We suggested 11 concrete recommendations to the Commission based on this premise\, and received good feedback on how to refine them to be more actionable.We will share our presentation of the Roadmap along with the feedback we received. We’ll then discuss with you how we should finalise the Roadmap as a public document in March. Your input as MyData members is invaluable to this process. If you’re unable to attend the Town Hall\, there will also be opportunities to contribute asynchronously. \n\n\n\nFor any questions or to share your input\, please contact Executive Director Christopher Wilson at christopher(at)mydata.org. \n\n\n\nHow to join: \n\n\n\nClick here to join the Town Hall\n\n\n\nIf the button doesn’t work\, please use the following details: Join Zoom Meetinghttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/86063921659?pwd=Yu1tmyRKskrg2eQMaf0QBa8UbLp2gz.1 \n\n\n\nMeeting ID: 860 6392 1659Passcode: 236793 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBecome a MyData Member\n\n\n\nDownload our member benefits brochure.\n\n\n\nNot a MyData member yet?
