Slimme en schone bevoorrading in Zaanstreek Waterland

Featured image

Bijna alle gemeenten uit de Zaanstreek Waterland hebben het streven naar slimme, schone en duurzame mobiliteitsoplossingen in hun coalitieakkoord opgenomen. Een belangrijke missie waar ook veel bedrijven in deze regio mee aan de slag zijn. Maar hoe kunnen gemeenten en bedrijven beter samenwerken? Welke slimme oplossingen zien we al in andere regio’s ontstaan en waar is vraag naar? Deze vragen proberen we samen met jou te beantwoorden.

Netwerkbijeenkomst: ‘Technologie: Onze vriend en vijand’

Featured image

Emerging Technologies zoals Artificial Intelligence en Internet of Things; als we de hype moeten geloven, zal het de wereld redden óf de mensheid overbodig achterlaten. Is de impact van technologie op de mens te overzien? Anticiperen we wel voldoende op alle veranderingen? Welke rol spelen klanten, inwoners, patiënten en gebruikers eigenlijk nog? Hoe kunnen we technologie en data inzetten voor een menselijke digitale transformatie in onze Metropoolregio?

We ontmoeten je graag op maandag 3 december op onze jaarlijkse netwerkbijeenkomst. Na een kort inhoudelijk programma is er volop tijd om te netwerken en samen plannen te maken voor 2019.

Programma
Kate O’Neill – Fortune 500-adviseur, auteur en Tech-humanist over de mens-gecentreerde Metropool van de toekomst:

Hoe kunnen wij de economische, technologische en data gedreven kansen omarmen en tegelijkertijd de meest hoopvolle en leefbare toekomst bieden voor de mensen die er wonen, werken en spelen? Kate neemt ons mee naar de nieuwe wereld waar data en technologie bijdragen aan betekenisvolle menselijke ervaringen, rechtvaardige opbrengsten en duurzame resultaten.

Arnold WM Smeulders – hoogleraar Artificial Intelligence aan de UvA, lid van AINED voor de nationale agenda AI, directeur van de UvA-labs met Qualcomm en met Bosch, betrokken bij Kepler Vision BV. Kepler is zijn tweede start-up vanuit de universiteit.

Arnold zal vanuit zijn ervaring met publiek-private samenwerkingen op het Science Park putten om te laten zien dat de rol van de universiteit in de digitale stad verandert.

Meld je op tijd aan want vol = vol.

Amsterdam Blockchain City

Featured image

How can we accelerate blockchain entrepreneurship and adoption in the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area?

The promises of blockchain are endless. Blockchain allows us to find solutions to problems that were not possible before. Economies are reinvented, platform capitalism is being challenged and a new fair economy seems possible. But there are also many questions. What is the impact of blockchain? And what does this mean for the city? What role do companies, governments and knowledge institutions in the Amsterdam region play? How can we as a city a support a strong blockchain community?

This discussion in the Amsterdam region is very fragmented. To accelerate the development of a blockchain economy, the Amsterdam Economic Board and the municipality of Amsterdam are organizing a meetup for public and private partners to contribute to an action plan.

Our main interest lies in ways to strengthen the blockchain community and to accelerate blockchain entrepreneurship. But, amongst others, we are also very interested in:

How to position ourselves better internationally?
How to make better use of research?
How to accelerate the adoption of blockchain?
Essential conditions for a decentralized economy (if any)?

This is an invite-only event. Are your interested in joining us? Please let me know!

Green Deal Zero Emission City Logistics

Featured image

In 2018, the Board will strive for realizing the initiative ‘Green Deal Zero Emission Stadslogistiek (ZES) in the Amsterdam metropolitan area. Governments, companies and knowledge institutions are therefore working together in order to make goods transportation emission free by 2025.

Do you have an interesting initiative, or are you – along with other parties – part of a project that focuses on cleaner and more sustainable goods transportation? Share this with us before the end of March.
For, towards the end of April, we will start an ‘online display’. In it, all currently active projects/initiatives around sustainable city-logistics within the metropolitan area are going to be presented. This will offer a clear overview of all the initiatives already running, furthermore, it might inspire others to get started on zero-emission urban transport.

We are therefore calling everyone to enrol, regardless of whether you’re a big or small initiative. There are already countless transporters in the Amsterdam metropolitan area that contribute to this much needed improvement/change. The first step is to make them visible for other interested parties, in order for the latter to be able to find and join initiatives and/or to share their knowledge and expertise. The next step is to scale up successful local initiatives, from being regional to becoming nationwide and even worldwide projects.

Is your organization/business/company committed to clean and smart urban logistics, and do you believe others can learn from your experience(s)? Then sign your-self/company up! We’re not only looking for companies with, for instance, a sustainable and smart way of transportation, but also for interesting/innovative collaborations that contribute to clean and green city transportation!
