SUMMARY:EU-JAPAN DIGITAL WEEK 2025
DESCRIPTION:The EU-Japan Digital Week will bring together stakeholders from the EU and Japan to focus on key priority areas for both the EU and Japan: 6G\, Data Spaces\, Smart Connectivity and Computing and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence (AI). A policy workshop will also be organised in close consultation with the Delegation of the European Union to Japan to ensure that it reflects the shared priority of both regions and aligns with the strategic objectives of the EU-Japan Digital Partnership. \nThe EU-Japan Digital Week has been built around the EU-Japan Digital Skills Workshop\, following a request from the Delegation of the European Union to Japan. The workshop on Data Spaces will operate under the umbrella of the Delegation of the European Union to Japan and will contribute to the aim of promoting interoperability among EU and Japan data spaces as agreed at the second Digital Partnership Council. This workshop has been designed in a way to create a clear pathway towards and to facilitate industry data space pilots. \nBy fostering dialogue on these critical themes\, the EU-Japan Digital Week contributes to a more connected\, innovative\, and sustainable future for both regions. \n  \nRead more here

SUMMARY:Workshop: Cyber Resilience Act and the horizontal standards
DESCRIPTION:The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) aims to enhance EU cybersecurity by ensuring that digital products and services remain secure throughout their lifecycle. It promotes proactive risk management and accountability\, enabling businesses and users to collaborate in building a safer digital future. To support CRA implementation\, the European Commission has issued a standardization request to the European Standardization Organizations\, focusing on both horizontal standards for a generic framework and vertical standards for specific product risks. This workshop will highlight the work on the horizontal standards required for CRA compliance. \nThe workshop will give an overview of the Cyber Resilience Act\, highlighting the key role of standardization and the way forward. The workshop will provide a comprehensive understanding of how standards can effectively mitigate risks\, enhance cybersecurity posture\, and ensure that products and services are aligned with the legal expectations set forth by the Act. \nThe workshop is an opportunity for participants to engage in discussions on two critical sets of standards that are currently under development: \nPrinciples for cyber resilience: Designing\, developing\, and producing products with digital elements in such a way that they ensure an appropriate level of cybersecurity based on the risks. Vulnerability handling for products with digital elements.

SUMMARY:SEEBLOCKS.eu Final Event How the DEP project SEEBLOCKS.eu has impacted European Blockchain/DLT Standardisation
DESCRIPTION:Purpose & Scope\nThe SEEBLOCKS.eu final event\, will be a playground for ICT experts to showcase how the 30 month project has managed to accelerate blockchain standardisation\, through dedicated financial support to European experts working diligently in this field\, and how blockchain and DLT can serve society as relevant technology enablers. \nBlockchain\, we have seen\, is a turning-point innovation\, since it is one of the most novel horizontal IT revolutions that is affecting all industries equally. This disruptive technology\, which thanks to its adoption growth is becoming a mainstream technology\, can bring lasting benefits to societies at large.  To prevail\, it requires proper standardisation to reflect the needs of its global users that come across all continents. Moreover\, with the growth of blockchain usage\, it grows also the demand for blockchain professionals\, which directly increases the demand for blockchain skills. It’s momentous to tackle blockchain skills shortages and respond to current and future needs for the exponential demand of a blockchain workforce. \nThanks to SEEBLOCKS.eu 20 European experts were able to contribute to Blockchain/DLT Standardisation efforts\, provided blockchain insights and contributed these results in the  European Rolling Plan for ICT Standardisation. SEEBLOCKS.eu has also developed an online blockchain training course\, to be used as a sustainable service for the DLT/Blockchain community at large for learning and a freely available Standards Visualisation Tool to foster Education and Capacity in Blockchain/DLT Standardisation. \nThe event is structured such that it delves first into the regulatory aspects that influence DLT & Blockchain activities including the regulatory Acts that have come into force (AI Act\, Data Act\, European Digital Identity (EUDI)\, electronic identification\, authentication\, and trust services (eIDAS)\, EU Digital Identity Wallet (EUDIW)\, to name a few). This will be followed by an overview of the technical contributions from SEEBLOCKS.eu experts in bringing the European view to the standardisation efforts. \nThe event will then focus on providing a voice to those twenty experts to provide the impact their funding has produced and with what lasting results and looking to what next steps are necessary to make sure the investment is long-lasting. This will be coupled with the demonstration of the utility of the Blockchain/DLT Training Course. The day will conclude with a set of SEEBLOCKS.eu prizes being awarded to those outstanding experts who have made a difference in their Blockchain /DLT endeavours. \n  \nPrincipal outputs of SEEBLOCKS.eu\n\nBlockchain Standards Visualisation Tool;\nLandscape and Gap Analysis Reports;\nStandardisation Advances from SEEBLOCKS.eu experts;\nStandardisation Policy Roadmap;\nSEEBLOCKS.eu Training Course.\n\nWho should attend?\n\nBlockchain stakeholders from national/local authorities;\nResearchers and academics working in Blockchain fields;\nICT specialists and professionals working in the Blockchain\, DLT & IT domain;\nBlockchain Hubs & Networks;\nPolicy & SDO & NSB representatives.\n\n  \nSee the agenda and read more about the event here.

SUMMARY:InDiCo-Global Webinar Series | From Identity to Inclusion: Strengthening Digital Public Services through Standards
DESCRIPTION:Digital transformation is only as strong as the standards that support it — and increasingly\, governments are looking to international benchmarks to ensure security\, interoperability\, and inclusivity in their services.  \nIn this fourth InDiCo-Global webinar\, we explore two on-the-ground initiatives from Africa and Latin America that engage with the EU’s approach to digital identity and digital government as a point of reference for local action.  \nDebora Comparin will share her work on developing security guidelines for digital identity wallets in Africa\, bridging regulatory gaps between the EU’s eIDAS framework and emerging continental trust frameworks. The aim: to build scalable\, secure\, and locally adaptable models that enable trusted cross-border digital identity solutions.  \nJulio Herrera\, representing Red Ciudadana in Guatemala\, will present efforts to strengthen digital government services through the adoption of European ICT standards — improving transparency\, accessibility\, and interoperability in public administration.  \nWhy join\n\nUnderstanding the EU’s eIDAS model and its global relevance\nSecurity and trust in digital identity wallets across regions\nAligning European standards with digital governance in Guatemala\nLessons in localisation: what works\, what’s needed\, and why context matters\nCapacity building and institutional readiness in public digital infrastructure\n\nWho should attend\n\nPolicymakers and digital rights advocates\nLegal and compliance professionals\nAI developers and data practitioners\nAcademia and civil society organisations\nInternational standards and cooperation bodies.\n\n  \nIf you missed this session\, read the key takeaways and watch the recording here: https://indico-global.eu/2025/05/01/webinar-recap-from-identity-to-inclusion-strengthening-digital-public-services-through-standards/
