SUMMARY:APRE Courses 2026: “Ethical Aspects and the AI Act in Horizon Europe Projects” webinar
DESCRIPTION:APRE is organizing the webinar “Ethical Aspects and the AI Act in Horizon Europe Projects” (“Aspetti etici e AI Act”)\, taking place online on 23 September 2026\, from 10:00 to 13:00. \nThe event is organized in collaboration with the University of Siena\, Scuola Normale Superiore\, University of Pisa\, Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna\, and the University of Florence. \nFor all activities funded under the Horizon Europe program\, ethical aspects are an integral part of research from start to finish\, and ethical compliance is fundamental to ensuring research excellence. Therefore\, right from the development of the project idea\, a thorough ethical evaluation must be conducted not only to comply with the legal framework\, but also to enhance proposal quality and increase the chances of success. \nConducting ethical research involves applying fundamental ethical principles and legislation across all possible research domains. Through practical examples and operational guidance\, this course provides useful tools to identify ethical and regulatory risks\, assess the compliance of AI applications\, and properly document activities within Horizon Europe proposals and projects.

SUMMARY:Netval Webinar: WE-WE 2026 – "Mind the Gap! Regole e accorgimenti per la gestione della proprietà intellettuale nelle collaborazioni tra enti di ricerca e imprese"
DESCRIPTION:Netval (Network per la Valorizzazione della Ricerca) is hosting an online session titled “WE-WE 2026: Mind the gap! Regole e accorgimenti per la gestione della proprietà intellettuale nelle collaborazioni tra enti di ricerca e imprese” as part of its Wednesday Webinar series\, on 14 Octber 2026\, from 14:00 to 17:00. \nCollaborations between universities\, public research organizations\, and businesses represent a fundamental tool for fostering knowledge transfer and research valorisation. However\, these partnerships frequently raise complex intellectual property issues\, requiring a careful balance between the public mission of academic research and the commercial interests of companies. \nThis webinar provides an overview of the key legal and operational challenges that arise when managing IP rights in public-private partnerships. Particular attention will be given to the implications of State Aid regulations and the need to ensure collaboration frameworks that comply with European legal standards. \nThe session will also place strong emphasis on managing the co-ownership of research results\, examining its advantages\, limitations\, and practical drawbacks\, while presenting contractual solutions designed to balance knowledge dissemination with economic exploitation. Through the analysis of real-world case studies and negotiation scenarios\, speakers Alessandra Baccigotti (University of Bologna) and Martina Cavaliere (University of Teramo) will offer actionable guidance to prevent disputes\, reduce legal uncertainty\, and build effective IP strategies across the entire project lifecycle. \nFor full registration details and participation terms\, visit the official Netval Event Page.
