The document analyzes questionnaires from robotics stakeholders in Malaysia regarding technology adoption, human capital needs, and standards. It finds that most stakeholders serve industrial automation and research areas like embedded computing. They face challenges like insufficient funding, high costs, and lack of skilled workers. It recommends that the government provide more funding and shared resources, improve education through programs like teaching factories, and increase awareness of standards to help the robotics industry in Malaysia grow.
This year sees businesses continue to respond to the pandemic and adjust to the new EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement, while at the same time addressing issues like climate change and digitalisation.
As such, Enterprise Ireland has identified the following strategic priorities for 2021:
• Strengthen Irish enterprise to respond to market shocks and disruption in response to COVID-19 and Brexit
• Drive transformational change and the pace of innovation transitioning to new business models, digitalisation and the low carbon economy
• Scale and Grow the export and start-up base, across regions and sectors and grow companies of all sizes.
Enhancing, nurturing and leveraging the research and innovation ecosystem is key to Enterprise Ireland achieving these objectives.

Legacy organizations are being disrupted and are struggling to keep pace with the hyper-volatile business landscape. The competitive landscape for organisations has become more dynamic. Hyper Agile Competitors, Movement of the markets toward the east and ‘Digital becoming the New Normal’ are realities all companies are faced with.
This keynote by Pari Natarajan , CEO of Zinnov provides insights on the convergence of 3 different pillars and to draw a picture on how this digital age will be critical to build technology organizations of tomorrow.
Contemporary AI engenders hopes and fears – hopes of harnessing AI for productivity growth and innovation – fears of mass unemployment and conflict between humankind and an artificial super-intelligence. Before we let AI drive our hopes and fears, we need to understand what it is and what it is not. Then we need to understand how to implement AI in an ethical and responsible manner. Only then can we harness the power of AI to our benefit.

Masterclass Unmanned vessels - vice and virtue for shipping industry?Maurice Jansen
Technological developments relating to unmanned vessels and drones are rapidly progressing. Ship technology companies are already foresee unmanned vessels sailing the world oceans within the forthcoming 10 years. On a smaller scale, more and more start-up companies are experimenting with drone technology as a means to monitor and assess water quality and clean up port basins. In this Masterclass we give insights in what we can expect from the technological developments ahead, and seek answers to the most challenging questions: when can we see the first unmanned vessels entering our ports, what does this means from a legal point of view and to what extent does it require international and national laws and regulations to change?

Accessu 2016 presentation "Implementing IT Accessibility Strategically" Jeff Kline
While laws, regulations and standards for making IT accessible have been in effect for well over a decade, adoption in both public and private sectors has been painfully slow. One overarching inhibitor to IT accessibility that is rarely identified, even when an organization is relatively committed to make its products and services accessible, is that the organization itself is not enabled for addressing IT accessibility in all its dimensions. When considering the accessibility of ALL of an organization’s IT including external products, services, and its complex internal IT environment, e-learning, etc., a comprehensive, holistic approach needed.

Webinar: Software Adoption Crash Course for Customer Education LeadersServiceRocket
According to Maria Manning-Chapman, vice president of education services research at TSIA, "Education Services organizations truly have the opportunity to be a game-changer in driving product usage and adoption, because training is at the core of both." In the wake of XaaS business models, "adoption services" are at the forefront of driving company and customer success. Manning-Chapman argues that education services teams are in the best position to drive adoption because education is a one-to-many model that is scalable.
Manning-Chapman joins this ServiceRocket webinar to discuss:
1. What is adoption and why it's important
2. Why customer education is ideal for driving adoption
3. Customer education and the adoption curve
4. Examples of results organizations are achieving using education to drive adoption

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Yes No
Reasons
Current Education System too many theory/non practical
Students can learn more practical stuff and understand what really happen in
real world from teaching factory
Will only work if trainers are qualified with strong industry exposures
Students exposed to real robot programming rather than simulator
Hands on/practical with industry standard platform can teach students many
on the job skills needed from day 1. It also exposes them to real world
problems
