At an airbase in Denmark, the Danish Air Force has been training the next generation of Ukrainian fighter pilots to fly the F-16 Fighting Falcon. A coalition of NATO Allies, including Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands and Norway, has agreed to donate their F-16s to the Ukrainian Air Force. As part of the deal, Danish instructors at Skrydstrup Air Base are training Ukrainian pilots, technicians and ground crew how to fly and maintain the F-16. The first jets will enter service later this year. The Ukrainian pilots are full of praise for the F-16, noting its responsive controls and agile flight features. The F-16 is an advanced multirole fighter, which will replace Ukraine’s aging fleet of MiG-29 Fulcrums and Su-27 Flankers. Speedy, highly manoeuvrable and capable of carrying a wide range of ordnance, the F-16 will significantly strengthen Ukraine’s ability to continue defending its airspace and territory against Russia's war of aggression. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ SUBSCRIBE to this channel https://bit.ly/NATOsubscribe SUBSCRIBE to NATO News https://bit.ly/NATONewsSubscribe SUBSCRIBE to NATO History https://bit.ly/NATOHistorySubscribe Connect with NATO online: Visit the Official NATO Homepage: https://bit.ly/NATOhomepage Receive NATO updates via email: https://bit.ly/NATOemails Find NATO on FACEBOOK: https://bit.ly/NATOfacebook Follow @NATO on TWITTER: https://bit.ly/NATOtwitter Follow NATO on Instagram: https://bit.ly/NATOinstagram Find NATO on LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/NATOlinkedin Find NATO on Flickr: https://bit.ly/NATOflickr #NATO #OTAN #Ukraine

The Canadian economy is in a rut, becoming increasingly less globally competitive than its peers. That much is clear in news headlines and dinner table conversations across the country. But there is far less clarity about the specific underlying details of what ails Canada’s economy, and as a result most assertions about how to address Canada’s economic woes focus too much on discrete issues such as science funding, lack of venture capital, and antitrust policy, while missing the bigger picture of what drives innovation, productivity, and competitiveness. To move the country forward, Canadian policymakers will need to take concerted action to fundamentally shift the way innovation and competitiveness policy is conceived and implemented in Canada.Please join the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) as it launches the Centre for Canadian Innovation and Competitiveness, an Ottawa-based ITIF affiliate focused on tackling these issues. This event will feature an expert panel discussion on a new report from the Centre examining the how and why of Canada’s performance on key measures of productivity, innovation, and competitiveness.

Following international efforts like the DMA and DMCC, India’s proposed Digital Competition Law sparks a pivotal discussion: can regulation and innovation coexist within India’s digital markets?Our expert panel will tackle the complexities of India’s proposed Digital Competition Law, evaluate the effectiveness of the current Competition Act in relation to the digital age, and debate the merits of the ex-ante framework for digital companies. The ex-ante Digital Competition Law raises questions about the complex interplay of competition and market actors. Speakers will analyze how the Digital Competition Law’s restrictions on activities such as self-preferencing and bundling could impact user experience and market efficiency. Join ITIF's Schumpeter Project on Competition Policy for a timely panel discussion featuring leading antitrust lawyers from India and the United States. Questions for speakers?

The Ro-NET project is part of the Romania's broadband plan, which in turn is one of the components of the country's Digital Agenda. The project, designed and implemented by the Broadband Competence Office (BCO) of the country, managed to connect 200,000 households as well as thousands of public and private institutions. The project was designed to address multiple critical objectives. It aimed to bridge the digital gap between areas with and without broadband access. The project specifically targeted 695 localities, the so called “white areas”, located exclusively in rural Romania. Its primary aim was to establish the essential broadband infrastructure needed to stimulate economic growth and job creation within the localities it served. Additionally, the project sought to create conditions conducive to a competitive broadband services market by offering open access infrastructure in the designated areas. The Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitalisation leads the project, with private operators being the concessionaires. They are entrusted with the task of designing, permitting, constructing, and operating the network for a minimum of 18 years. The project was supported by the European Regional Development Fund. This video is part of the European Broadband Competence Offices Network’s programme promoting awareness of good practices in broadband projects as well as EU broadband funding and policy.

The primary objective of the “v” project is to extend access to the next generation network in areas currently lacking such infrastructure, with no scheduled plans for its expansion over the next three years. The project was carried out by the public institution “Plačiajuostis internetas” in cooperation with the Ministry of Transport and Communications of the Republic of Lithuania. “Plačiajuostis internetas” is a non-profit organisation under the Ministry of Transport and Communications, established with the aim of creating modern electronic communication infrastructure and providing high-quality wholesale broadband services. Prior to this project, “Plačiajuostis internetas” had already completed five broadband development projects in commercially unattractive rural areas of Lithuania. The project’s success is based on the deployment of different technologies, such as optical fibre-optic networks, passive GPON technology, telecommunication towers, and more.

From trust and optimism to fear and skepticism, the attitudes and opinion of Americans about AI will likely shape not only the adoption of the technology, but also public support for policies to accelerate its development and use. For example, Congress is likely to proceed cautiously with AI in areas where voters worry the technology’s risks outweigh its benefits. On the other hand, Congress is more likely to accelerate digital transformation where voters believe that the technology will improve their lives. Join the Center for Data Innovation and Public First for the release of an in-depth survey about what of Americans thinks about AI, how these views have shifted over the past year, and the implications of these beliefs for businesses, policymakers, and society at large.

Are recent US developments in biotechnology and national security impacting UK companies? This webinar explores the implications of the BIOSECURE Act and President Biden's Executive Order on data privacy, including genomic data, biometric data, personal health data, geolocation data and financial data. If the BIOSECURE bill, introduced by a bipartisan group of Select Committee Members in the US Senate and the House goes through, it could severely impact US companies’ ability and desire to contract with biotechnology entities from China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. Moreover, the bill also specifically names certain companies related to the People’s Republic of China —BGI, MGI, Complete Genomics, WuXi AppTec, and their affiliates—as companies of concern. How are UK life science companies responding to these developments and what does it mean for our ecosystem? Join us on this webinar to learn more about how the environment may change with these developments, and what they mean for UK companies looking to expand and develop overseas.

Large language models (LLMs) have spearheaded a new era marked by sophisticated text generation, advanced comprehension, and dynamic interaction. Recent AI innovations have paved the way for the birth of language models with an unprecedented ability to process and generate extensive volumes of comprehensive textual content. While LLMs have undeniably demonstrated their prowess across diverse sectors, their integration into the telecommunications industry has been somewhat limited. However, this landscape is undergoing a gradual metamorphosis as researchers delve deeper into the potential of LLMs within this domain. With this competition, our objective is to tackle this challenge and pave the way for the development of telecom GPTs to pave the way towards automation of telecom networks through large AI models.

Massive MIMO base stations, with their large number of antennas, can use beamforming to communicate with multiple users simultaneously on the same time and frequency resource. However, when user channels are highly correlated, this advantage can be diminished, significantly impacting the spectral efficiency of multi-user beamforming. As users move within a network cell, their channels vary across both time and frequency, which in turn affects their correlation with other users, leading to different optimal groupings of users depending on the specific time-frequency resource. Thus, to maximize spectral efficiency while maintaining fairness among users, the base station must carefully schedule users during each transmission interval. The goal of this challenge is to develop machine learning-based algorithms to address the multi-user beamforming scheduling problem in practical settings. Given the considerable overhead associated with constantly measuring user channels in mobile environments, an efficient solution may need to work with partial or even stale channel data to schedule users effectively in upcoming periods. Thus, machine learning algorithms can be ideal for managing incomplete or old channel data and deriving effective user scheduling strategies that aim to maximize network throughput and fairness. In this webinar, we will discuss this challenge in greater detail. We will present a baseline solution that assumes full channel knowledge, outline the available datasets, and explain the evaluation criteria for the challenge. This discussion aims to foster innovation in developing robust solutions for multi-user scheduling in massive MIMO systems.

Our paper examines the causal impact of economic sanctions on both food prices and food security. Food prices serve as a pivotal gauge of food security, and the enforcement of economic sanctions may compound food security issues in the countries targeted by such measures. The examination of the impact of sanctions on food prices is of paramount importance, especially considering anecdotal evidence suggesting heightened food security concerns in nations subjected to sanctions. To ascertain the existence of a causal link between food prices and sanctions, we employ a two-way fixed-effects approach and leverage the entropy balancing technique, which replicates randomization in observational studies. Our analysis relies on two primary datasets: the recently developed Global Sanctions Database (GSDB) for measuring sanctions and FAOSTAT for evaluating food prices. Our results show that sanctions result in a real term increase in food prices as during the sanctions period, food prices are higher by 0.01-0.014 compared to non-sanctions period. Sanctions contribute to a higher prevalence of undernourishment (PoU) by 1.419-2.083.
