The GLACIATION project is coming to a close, and we are delighted to invite you to its Final Conference, a half-day event dedicated to shaping the future of sustainable and privacy-preserving data operations across Europe.
The programme will bring together representatives from EU institutions, industry leaders, and research innovators to explore the project’s achievements and their relevance for Europe’s digital and green transition. Sessions will highlight:
- The EU’s vision for sustainable and secure data infrastructures.
- GLACIATION’s breakthroughs in edge-to-cloud computing for a greener digital future.
- Innovative solutions developed within the project and tested in real-life pilots.
- Cross-project collaboration with Horizon Europe initiatives such as TANGO, TRUSTEE, ENCRYPT, and MOBISPACES, fostering a joint effort towards secure, privacy-aware, and energy-efficient data spaces.
The full programme with speakers will be announced soon.
The day will conclude with closing reflections and a networking lunch — a chance to connect with stakeholders working at the intersection of digital innovation, sustainability, and privacy.
