On 12 and 13 October in Prague, the European Alliance for Innovation took part at the 6th edition of the European Computer Science Summit. Deans, department chairs and senior faculty of leading European Computer Science and institutions met to discuss the future of research and Innovation in Europe.
The debate at the summit focused on the current situation of ICT professional societies in Europe after a 2008 report commissioned by DG INFSO (European Commission) explored the feasibility and advantages of creating one European society representing all ICT scientists and professionals in Europe. During the debate the European Alliance for Innovation (EAI) position as an umbrella organisation emerged as a concrete answer to the Commission’s call.
