3½ Questions about the EBSI Ecosystem Day (Brussels): Success for blockchain in vocational education and training

EBSI Ecosystem Day in Brussels, Belgium May 2024: Insights from M.A. Philipp Zagler (research assistant at the Institute for Interactive Systems at the TH Lübeck)

Who are you and what kind of event was it?

I am M.A. Philipp Zagler and as a research assistant at the Institute for Interactive Systems at the Lübeck University of Applied Sciences I was able to participate in the EBSI Ecosystem Day on May 7, 2024.

How did you get involved in the event?

The EBSI Ecosystem Day represented two milestones:

  • The conclusion of our participation in EBSI Early Adopters Wave 3: At the event, my colleague Rudolf Ruland from the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Information Technology (FIT) and I were able to present our scenario for vocational education and training and introduce the technology behind it in detail.
  • The launch of EDIC (European Digital Infrastructure Consortium) - Europeum: The EBSI Ecosystem Day also marked the launch of EDIC-Europeum, a formal institution that will take over our work and focus on the further development of the European Blockchain Services Infrastructure (EBSI) and its use cases. EDIC-Europeum will actively participate in policy discussions and decisions on the future of blockchain, create regulatory frameworks and drive the development of the infrastructure in Europe and globally. It also aims to create a strong ecosystem around this infrastructure and future applications for public and private purposes.

What did you take away from the event?

The conference gave me the opportunity to make important contacts for future European projects and to directly develop concrete project ideas. Particularly noteworthy was the inspiring exchange with colleagues in the heart of Brussels and the exciting keynotes, which highlighted the potential of blockchain in combination with artificial intelligence and the metaverse.

The bottom line:

  • Our vocational training scenario was successfully presented at the EBSI Ecosystem Day.
  • EDIC-Europeum was founded to continue the development of EBSI.
  • The conference provided valuable contacts and impulses for future projects.

Name one highlight from the event

There was no single highlight for me, but rather an overall highlight: I found the EBSI Ecosystem Day to be a great success and an important step forward for blockchain-based solutions in vocational education and training.
