The mission of the INPACE project is to support the implementation of the Digital Partnerships between the European Union and Japan, South Korea, Singapore, as well as the Trade and Technology Council with India. In this context, we are organising a 2-day Symposium in Seoul, Republic of Korea on Digital Technologies and Policies: Supporting the Indo-Pacific-European Digital Partnerships.
Join us at the forefront of digital innovation as we explore the latest advancements in digital technologies and transformative applications in the Indo-Pacific Region and in Europe. The event will address the intersections of technology and policy, fostering dialogues between experts from both regions to strengthen digital partnerships with the Republic of Korea, Japan, Singapore, and the cooperation with India in the TTC context.
The Symposium will provide a forum to discuss groundbreaking technologies and their impacts:
- Trusted AI: Unlock the potential of AI while ensuring reliability and ethics
- Chips of the Future: Discover breakthroughs in semiconductor technology
- Future Networks: Explore the evolution of connectivity and communication
- Cybersecurity: Delve into strategies for safeguarding our digital world.
These sessions will highlight cutting-edge developments and the policies shaping these fields.
The symposium is a catalyst for collaboration, fostering mutual understanding and joint research initiatives between European and Indo-Pacific organisations. Don’t miss the special information session on EU funding opportunities for Indo-Pacific researchers and innovators!

Whereas the hotspot is built on technical standards for the CPS/Internet of
Things, cold spots are foreground for social trust standards in the Internet of People (Nold and van Kranenburg 2011). Cold zones would allow future urban residents a secluded period. An episode of digital interruption and think-time, more collective awareness and “suspension of disbelief” as psychologists call it. The gift of time and space is crucial and valuable, an almost lost feature of urban modernity and hyperconnectivity, with its restlessness and always on screen-addiction anxieties. Cold zones allow humans an increased awareness of the temporality of life on earth (a phenomenological, sensory, an experimental sand-boxing experience). In addition to the On-Life initiative and H2020 Responsible Research and Innovation, the S + T + Arts (Science Technology and the Arts program of DG CNECT) links to our approach. The aim is urban regeneration through a creative space, open for technologists and artists to challenge the “status quo” and to stimulate others to perceive the new engineered realities.
