Smart Everything Everywhere is organizing, on Monday, April 28, in Bucharest (at The Marmorosch, Autograph Collection), starting at 12:00 PM, the first session of the 7th edition of the Digital International Series: Education and Digital Skills in the AI and Disinformation Era. This high-level roundtable event is held in strategic partnership with the Ministry of Education and Research, the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Bucharest, and the British-Romanian Chamber of Commerce.
The meeting will be attended by the Vice President of the European Parliament, Victor Negrescu, the Minister of Education and Research, Daniel David, as well as diplomats, tech entrepreneurs, industry leaders, journalists, influencers, and psychologists. Among the more than 25 specialists speaking during the debate are:
- Prof. Dr. Tănase Stamule – Dean of the Faculty of Economic Studies, Bucharest
- Dr. Raluca Anton – Psychotherapist
- Sebastian Dobrincu – Renowned tech entrepreneur
- Valentin Jucan – Vice President of the National Audiovisual Council
- Gabriela Popescu – Microsoft representative
- Diana Segărceanu – Co-founder of Avenor College
- Adelina Dabu – Confederation of Employers Concordia
- Tolga Banyocu – Garanti BBVA
- Oleg Roibu – eMAG
The debate aims to explore how digital skills can be integrated into school curricula to ensure digital/AI literacy, media integrity, and cross-sector collaboration—empowering future European citizens to critically engage with digital content and enhancing innovation and competitiveness in Romania.
The discussion will also focus on the skills of the future and preparing new generations for labor market transformations. It will address tools and policies that support student-centered learning, development, and reskilling—ensuring adaptability to a constantly changing market and economic conditions, as well as skills related to critical thinking and discernment in the digital space.
Another key objective is to explore how digital skills can serve as a vital defense against disinformation generated through AI-driven platforms and social networks in Romania and across Europe.
Following the debate, organizers hope participants will outline joint plans for the responsible integration of AI in education through formal and informal programs, and establish clear strategies for embedding digital skills training into Romania’s educational systems.
Interested journalists are kindly asked to announce their intention to attend in advance. Thank you!
The event is closed for the public but can be watched LIVE on Smart Everything Everywhere’s Facebook page.
