Commitment of key-note speakers(s)

Our events have the goal to attract stakeholders from all target groups mentioned above. To do that sufficient attention should go to agenda setting that considers the goals that are laid out and to find the right balance between the topics discussed, and which panel members, moderators and keynote-speakers are to be invited to come speak at our event. Not only does a balance need to be find in terms of content but also in the background and status of the speakers, our event wants to attract people with different views on the issues, from different backgrounds, keep diversity in mind and strike a proper gender balance. The event is planning on attracting speakers from government, industry, and research.Special attention will go to the keynote speaker(s), this should be somebody who embodies the goal of our event and who has real experience of turning research into applications and who plays a bridging role at European level.
