SIDE EVENTS

A selection of the extensive program of 2022 Side Events related to this track.

Living-in.EU: supporting the responsible use of AI in cities

The session demonstrates how cities are developing and implementing practices and tools for a more responsible use of AI. With algorithm registries, impact assessment tools and contractual clauses for procurement, they are creating safeguards to foster trust in AI. Living-in.EU is the multi-level collaborative platform that helps to align and upscale these good practices in support of the digital transformation of cities and communities.

Urban Artificial Intelligence

How can we move from the definition to operationalizing AI ethics in urban contexts? How can governments work with the private sector and with civil society to ensure that AI solutions allow for auditability and traceability? This session premiers the documentary "Ethical Urban AI: Trustworthy Cities in the AI Era", followed by a roundtable on the opportunities and limits for PP collaboration to advance urban AI.

Government Innovation through Public-Private Technology Ecosystems

This panel explores ecosystem approaches to government innovation. By nature, government must prioritize quality, reliability and resiliency of municipal services, over adoption of fast-moving, new technology. But that tech is key to delivering ever-improving services. Learn best-practices for multi-party public-private partnership and government innovation as demonstrated through successful use case examples.
