Safeguarding Privacy in AI-Driven Public Services: Developing Ethical Data Protection Guidelines
Tuesday, 22nd October 11:00-13:00 IST (GMT+1)IVI Boardroom 238, Eolas Building, Maynooth University
This workshop aims to explore the privacy challenges that emerge as the use of AI technologies is rapidly adopted in public services. Adopting AI-oriented tools and technologies in Public Services feeds vast advantages, including boosted efficiency and effectiveness, enhanced service delivery, and greatly enriched decision-making processes. The agile adoption of (AI) tools and technologies in Public Services also raises concerns about the privacy, and misuse of sensitive data since the AI-powered systems essentially collect, process, and store a large amount of data. The workshop will bring together policymakers, public service professionals, technologists, and researchers to discuss the privacy implications, develop data protection strategies, and address the delicate balance between ensuring data privacy and maximizing data utility.
Webinar: How to accelerate the circular transition in the Construction Sector?
Tuesday, 22nd October 15:00-16:30 IST (GMT+1)Online Event
This webinar will address the challenges and opportunities for transitioning from a typical linear economy based on the “take, make, dispose” concept to a circular economy that is more sustainable and resource-efficient. Despite being required, this is not a simple undertaking.
This webinar will bring together leaders and experts in circularity in construction to discuss the latest developments, innovations, and challenges in the construction sector, which is critical to meeting climate policy commitments, with a focus on incorporating prevention and reuse into construction activities. Join us for interesting presentations from speakers, followed by a discussion addressing the key issues and considerations currently facing this area.
IVI Coffee&Talk: Data Sovereignty Guarantee Technology in Agriculture
Thursday, 24th October 11:00-11:30 IST (GMT+1)Online Event
You are invited to join the Innovation Value Institute’s Coffee&Talk ”Data Sovereignty Guarantee Technology in Agriculture” on 24th Oct Thursday at 11:00 which will be presented by Fjolla Berisha.
Data Sovereignty Guarantee Technology in Agriculture refers to a collection of digital tools and systems designed to ensure that farmers and agricultural stakeholders maintain control and autonomy over the data generated from their farming activities. This technology is crucial in preventing the unauthorized use, access, or transfer of agricultural data, which is becoming increasingly valuable in precision farming, smart agriculture, and agribusiness platforms.
This informal meeting will allow both researchers and the wider public to find out about and discuss digital innovations across a number of different fields. Join us and explore Mobile Health Technologies for laypersons’ health & well-being and discover either it’s sense of empowerment or an illusion!
Inaugural Lecture - Process Science – Leveraging Digital Trace Data for Service Innovation
Thursday, 24th October 14:00-16:30 IST (GMT+1)TSI building, Lecture Theatre 1, Maynooth University
You are invited to join us for the Inaugural lecture from Professor Jan vom Brocke from 2-4:30pm (includes a wine & canape reception) at Maynooth University on 24th October.
Professor Jan vom Brocke is recognised worldwide as one of the leading information systems scholars and co-founder of process science. He is the Director of the European Research Center for Information Systems (ERCIS) and holds the Chair of Information Systems & Business Process Management at the University of Münster in Germany. In 2023 he has been appointed an Honorary Distinguished Professor of Process Science at Maynooth University within the Distinguished International Collaborator Program, and he provides the talk as an inaugural lecture present his work faculty, industry and society.
Jan vom Brocke | Maynooth University
Description:
How can organizations and societies respond to continuous change? How can they sense change, adapt to change and constantly produce innovate services in times of change? In this talk, Professor vom Brocke introduces Process Science as an emerging interdisciplinary field to scientifically research change and to fundamentally advance capabilities of digital service innovation in times of change. Process science studies socio-technical processes, which involve coherent series of changes over time, entailing actions and events that include humans and digital technologies. The ubiquitous availability of digital trace data, combined with advanced data analytics capabilities, offer new and unprecedented opportunities to study such processes through multiple data sources. Process science is concerned with describing, explaining, and intervening in socio-technical change. It is based on four key principles; it (1) puts socio-technical processes at the center of attention, (2) investigates socio-technical processes scientifically, (3) embraces perspectives of multiple disciplines, and (4) aims to create impact by actively shaping the unfolding of socio-technical processes. Professor vom Brocke will provide many examples of Process Science across industries, and he will present the Process Science Methodology, which enables both organizations and universities to engage in digital service innovation in times of change.
