In 2025 the ICT research platform Netherlands (IPN) exists 25 years. During these 25 years, IPN has created a national community in the domain of ICT research, and it has developed policies and activities to advance the field.
To celebrate the achievements of 25 years IPN, we are organising a special, online series of colloquia in which world-renowned computer scientists give their view on the progress in, and future of the field of computer science. These colloquia wil feature thought-provoking presentations that are of interest to a broad (academic) computer science audience. Although these colloquia are initially aimed at the Dutch computer science community, they are open to interested people around the world!
Forthcoming colloquia
Prof Paula Herber, Universität Münster, will provide a talk January 19, 2025, 16:00-17:00 CEST. The colloquium will be hosted as a Teams webinar. You can join the colloquium via teams.
