Health-NCP-Net 2.0 is organizing a free of charge Partnering Event on December 7th, 2017 in Brussels.
As the 2018-2020 Work Programme for “Health, Demographic Change & Wellbeing” will soon be launched and the next calls will open, the Partnering Event is the perfect opportunity to find a partner and to build your consortium.
The main part of the day is dedicated to bilateral meetings between people who are interested in the same call area.
The event will also provide information about support measures for Health projects and give researchers and entrepreneurs a platform to present their project ideas in 5-minute presentations.
The workshop “Next Generation User Authentication by Voice Biometrics? Ready to Market!”, organised by the European Project OCTAVE (Objective Control for Talker Verification), will take place in Florence on the 27th of June 2017.
Speakers will deliver their talk in English or Italian (simultaneous translation in both languages).
OCTAVE is a project funded by the E.U. Horizon 2020 Programme, in the Secure Societies Area. It has implemented and validated a scalable, trusted voice biometric authentication service. While simultaneously relieving end-users from the inconvenience of dealing with textual passwords, the OCTAVE platform will reduce the economic and practical burdens related to password loss and recovery.
