The ever-growing power of Digital
From Ubisoft to Forbes, digital solutions are hitting every single industry, from mobility to entertainment. It plays an essential role in our society and is forcing all sectors to upgrade and reinvent themselves.

The Age of Machines
Dealing with massive amounts of Data, the rise of Algorithms and the need for Cybersecurity are some of the main trends CIOs keep a close eye on around the world. Cyberattacks are more and more common and companies are being forced to adopt an information security policy to protect their data and the role of CIO is constantly being redefined. Moreover, these trends, along with machine learning, automation and artificial intelligence are completely reinventing manufacturing, one of Luxembourg's historical industries. What are the main threats and opportunities? How can operational excellence be achieved? What's new in AI? These sessions will bring together Paul Schockmel (Vice-President Strategy, Business Development and Marketing, IEE), Raja Chatila (Research Director, CNRS, ISIR - Institute of Intelligent Systems and Robotics), Dr. Robert Plana (Director, Innovation and Ecosystem, GE Digital), Jaap Zuiderveld (VP EMEAI, NVIDIA), Rohitashwa Pant (Vice President, KUKA AG) and many more. In a world where productivity and profit are the top priority, companies must learn how to minimize their costs and waste. Digital transforms all sectors of the economy forcing industrial companies to adapt quickly to change. Not being able to keep up with the new technologies will end up with decline in the near future.
Space Forum
Following the success of last year's Space Forum and with the multiplication of space initiatives launched by the Luxembourg government, the organizers have invited experts from some of world's biggest companies and agencies of the space industry: Airbus Safran Launchers, Arianespace, NASA, ESA, and much more. To discuss mobility, mobile internet, planetary defense, space mining, exploration, data and space innovation in general, Sam Scimemi (Director for International Space Station (ISS), NASA Headquarters), Pete Worden (former Director of NASA Ames Research Center), Jean-Jacques Dordain (former Director of ESA and advisor of spaceresources.lu), Jacques Breton (Senior VP, Sales & Customers, Arianespace), Peter Frans Pauwels (Co-founder of TomTom), Dr. Patrick Michel (Research Director, CNRS), Chris Lewicki (President & CEO, Planetary Resources) and Steve Collard (CEO, O3b Networks) will meet in Luxembourg next May. The spatial sector is of paramount importance in the high-tech industry. Its crucial challenge is the speed of data highways as well as securing the cyberspace. Technological innovations are required for this growing sector because of the importance of spatial telecommunication on earth.
