As part of the NexusForum project’s mission to influence and inform the evolving policy landscape for the Cognitive Computing Continuum (CCC), we have developed a comprehensive strategy to boost awareness and meaningful engagement in EU policy initiatives—particularly those led by the European Commission.
What Are Public Consultations?
Public consultations are formal processes launched by the European Commission and other EU institutions to gather feedback on proposed legislation or strategic initiatives. These consultations are open to all and typically conducted through a centralised EU platform. While they are essential for ensuring transparency and legitimacy in policy-making, they often require familiarity with technical language and formal procedures—barriers that can deter new or less experienced stakeholders.
How NexusForum Is Making a Difference
We are committed to lowering the entry barriers and demystifying the policy process, especially for organisations that have never participated in a public consultation before. To achieve this, we offer:
- Tailored guidance and practical resources;
- One-on-one support to help you understand and engage with the process;
- Dedicated segments in NexusForum Working Group webinars focused on:
- Reading and interpreting consultation texts;
- Formulating impactful responses;
- Navigating submission platforms;
Monitoring the Policy Landscape
In line with our goal to foster active participation in shaping the Cognitive Computing Continuum, we have also established a systematic monitoring system for relevant EU-level public consultations. This includes tracking initiatives related to:
- The cloud-edge-IoT ecosystem
- Digital sovereignty
- Artificial Intelligence (AI)
- Data spaces
- Cybersecurity
By staying ahead of these developments, we aim to help you stay informed and empowered to contribute meaningfully to the policy dialogue.
Stay tuned for upcoming webinars, consultation alerts, and participation opportunities because your input matters in shaping the future of cognitive computing in Europe.
