Speaking enagement at the EI FP7 ICT National Information Day 12th Jan. 2007

January 8th, 2007

Enterprise Ireland have kindly asked that I give a short presentation at their Event: FP7 Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) Information Day to be held in Dublin on January 12th, (this week).
The subject matter “Experiences of FP6 – an Academic perspective”. I’m finalising the presentation at the moment I hope I can give FP6 its fair dues.
Other items and presenters at the event include:
Overview of ICT Work Programme by Khalil Rouhana, European Commission. Mr. Rouhana is Head of Unit for Strategy for ICT Research and Development in the Directorate General for the Information Society and Media in the European Commission.
Participating in FP7 by Morten Moller, European Commission. Mr. Moller is Head of Unit for IST Operations in the Directorate General for the Information Society and Media in the European Commission.
Experiences of FP6 – an Industrial perspective by Mark Roddy, Lake Communications,. Mark is a product manager, and a colleague of mine on the FP6 project IST Daidalos.
The final section of the presentation is given to an explaination of Enterprise Ireland support during FP7. Sounds like they’ll be a crowd, 90 places have already been booked.
