The focus is on players in the digital media, games, technology, gamification, visualization, VR / AR and APITs industries
the Data TechUPs are designed in cooperation with the Ministry of Economics, Agriculture, Tourism and Forests of the State of Saxony-Anhalt.
Data sovereignty, interoperability and sustainability
Speakers: Bruno Kramm (spokesman for the KI Federal Association of Saxony-Anhalt, CEO & founder of infinte devices GmbH), Jana Dittmann (Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg), Stefan Weidner (Executive Director SAP University Competence Center Magdeburg)
What do we mean by digital sustainability? What does the physical and data infrastructure look like? For what purpose are the digital services and offers used? – Who is using it and who is benefiting? What are the business models and use cases like? Does it push sustainability and the common good or (only) profit?
These and other questions will be discussed by our speakers Jana Dittmann and Bruno Kramm in the impulse “Data sovereignty: data consumption and sustainability – shape it!” The topic is rounded off by Stefan Weidner’s keynote speech on interoperability, i.e. the ability to exchange data in an efficient and usable manner.

But what are the possibilities for possible business applications? Using voice and chatbots, Jun.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ingo Siegert explains in which business areas the machine processing of spoken and written language with the help of machine learning and cognitive computing offers promising potential uses – and where the limits are.
