The Workshop "Online public services in the context of smart governance" took place on November 14, 2019 at ICI Bucharest, and was organized to disseminate Project 75 / 19.06.2018 "Study on intelligent behavioral analysis systems (institutional and user level) on public services online" from the Sectorial Research-Development Plan in the "Digital Agenda for Romania" program.
The event featured an interactive debate about the current condition of online public services, as well as a scientific event hosted by the project and a presentation of the project's first two stages' outcomes.
The workshop was divided into two sections:
The presentations were followed by interactive debates and an exchange of experiences with authorities who had already implemented online services for citizens, based on which observations and conclusions were drawn about the level of acceptance and interaction, as well as the challenges and outcomes of digital communication between state administration and citizens. New technologies are being used to mediate the situation.
Developing and testing artificial intelligence solutions requires computing resources and technical expertise that not all companies have at their disposal. The services offered by the European BSC AI Factory project to address these needs were presented by the National Institute for Research and Development in Informatics – ICI Bucharest at GoTech World 2026, held on 10–11 November at Romexpo.
How can virtual and augmented reality technologies help people prepare for emergencies, improve interactions with public services, or create new ways of learning? These were among the applications presented by the National Institute for Research and Development in Informatics – ICI Bucharest at the “1st Regional Workshop to Strengthen the Central, Eastern European and Balkan Virtual Worlds Ecosystem”, held in Budapest, Hungary.
How can Europe prepare for the security challenges of the coming years, amid geopolitical instability, hybrid threats, and the rapid development of new technologies? These questions were at the heart of the conference “Towards Europe 2040: How Can We Anticipate Change and Build a Secure and Resilient Future?”, held in Bucharest on 9 November 2026 at the European Parliament Liaison Office in Romania.
