共探「現代科技與智慧社區的創新趨勢」

 

【華府國建聯誼會研討會活動第一次新聞稿】   Sent by Ching-Sung Chin   (金慶松)  

 

華府國建聯誼會訂於2024112日(週六)上午八時三十分至下午四時十分,假馬里蘭大學學院公園(College Park)校區舉辦學術研討會,今年研討會的主題是「現代科技與智慧社區的創新趨勢」(Innovation Trends in Modern Technology and Smart Communities),邀請台美的專家學者來發表論文及討論最新的相關發展。

 

隨著城市化和高科技的進展與應用,了解和利用創新科技對於保持競爭力和促進永續成長至關重要。這回研討會旨在針對新興技術的最佳實踐及可能挑戰,評估其潛在影響,並為台灣和美國的政府和社區提供可行的對策。社區利用科技和創新來提高居民生活的效率、品質和永續性,此等智慧社區的概念已成為進步的指標、文明的提升。我們的目標是為政策制定者、城市規劃者和社區生活者利益提供建議,以促進更聰明、更有彈性的社區發展。

 

研討會的議題包括:一、識別新興技術:透過廣泛的專家諮詢和創新趨勢分析,以確定各領域最有前景的新興技術。二、評估潛在影響:評估這些新興技術的潛在社會經濟、環境和道德影響,以預測它們對社會和產業的影響。三、分析採用趨勢:透過案例研究和採訪調查,分析不同產業和地理區域之間新興技術的採用模式。四、提供可行方案:制定可行的建議,以指導企業、政策制定者和研究人員有效利用新興技術。

 

期待這次研討會能對台灣的產學界拋磚引玉,並建立持續交流、觀摩、合作的平台。有意報名此研討會活動者,請逕電子郵件至華府國建聯誼會:capa.dc@gmail.com;或是擔任當天的志工人員,請發簡訊至301-370-6889 陳熙芙。
