Institute of Information and Communication Technologies (ITACA)

VIII Workshop on Innovation on Information and Communication Technologies (ITACA-WIICT 2021)

September 27 – October 4, 2021 (Online)


 

The ITACA-WIICT is a meeting forum for scientist, technicians and other professionals who are dedicated to Information and communication technologies study and research. Its fundamental scope is to promote the contact among scientific and professionals, improving the cooperation as well as the technological transfer among professionals.

Due to the COVID pandemic, this year edition will have a different approach. Researchers of the ITACA institute have prepared videos in which they show their areas of knowledge and research with the aim of bringing research closer to society and possible collaborators. In this sense, the WIICT pretends to be a kind of continuation of the 2021 European Researchers’ Night, which takes place just before the start of WIICT 2021, on September 24.

This edition is also intended to be a tribute to one of our young researchers, Ferran Mocholí, who unfortunately passed away this year.

The videos of this edition will be released gradually from Monday 27th at the following link: http://www.itaca.upv.es/wiict2021/
