25 September 2026
The ACHILLES project is heading to Galway, Ireland, for the European Big Data Value Forum (EBDVF) 2026, one of Europe’s key events bringing together the Data and AI research and innovation community. On 30 September 2026, ACHILLES will participate in the session “Four Projects, One DICE Alliance: Turning EU Data and AI Rules into Working Tools”, taking place from 11:00 to 12:00 in Room Connacht 2.
From European Data and AI rules to practical solutions
The session will bring together four European research and innovation projects – ACHILLES, ACCOMPLISH, CERTAIN and DataPACT – collaborating within the DICE Alliance (Data, Innovation, Compliance, Ethics).
The four projects share a common objective: helping turn Europe’s evolving Data and AI regulatory requirements into practical, reusable tools and solutions that can support organisations in developing and deploying responsible, trustworthy and compliant AI.
During the session, participants will have the opportunity to discover concrete approaches and results developed across the DICE Alliance and learn how collaboration among European projects can help bridge the gap between regulatory requirements and their implementation in real-world AI and data-driven environments.
Discover ACHILLES: Lighter, Clearer and Safer AI
At EBDVF 2026, ACHILLES will showcase its contribution towards a new generation of lighter, clearer and safer AI solutions.
In particular, the project is investigating innovative approaches to privacy protection through federated learning and synthetic data, while also addressing the energy and computational costs associated with AI model training.
Through these activities, ACHILLES aims to contribute technologies and methodologies that can support more efficient, privacy-preserving and trustworthy AI development in Europe.
Meet the ACHILLES consortium in Galway
The ACHILLES consortium will be represented at EBDVF 2026 by Taira Colah, Strategy & Business Innovation Consultant at PNO Innovation Digital.
Beyond the dedicated DICE Alliance session, EBDVF participants are warmly invited to visit the ACHILLES booth to meet our representative, learn more about the project and its latest developments, and discuss potential synergies and opportunities for collaboration.
We look forward to connecting with researchers, innovators, industry representatives, policymakers and fellow European projects in Galway!
Join us at EBDVF 2026 and discover how ACHILLES is working towards Lighter, Clearer and Safer AI.
