SUMMARY:Ethics as a Competitive Advantage: AI Ethics in France
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of the annual France-Atlanta series organized by Georgia Tech and the Embassy of France in the United States. \n\n\n\nThe recent establishment of France’s National Consultative Committee on Digital Ethics through Executive Order (“Décret 2024-463 of May 23\, 2024 portant creation du Comité Consultatif National d’Ethique du Numérique) is a significant step in the French debate on digital ethics with potential impacts on AI governance. Given the rapid integration of digital applications\, including AI systems\, into all aspects of our lives and the proliferation of disparate regulations\, the committee’s role is particularly intriguing from the current US approach to AI governance. This raises critical questions: Why did France opt for this institutional approach? How does it align with broader French and European digital policies and institutional landscapes? What is the committee’s expected mandate and anticipated impact on crucial issues like the metaverse\, digital health\, healthcare clinical research\, generative AI\, facial recognition\, or digital democracy? \n\n\n\nWelcoming Dr. Claude Kirchner\, the Director of the national pilot committee on digital ethics that prefigured this newly introduced but not already active committee. He would provide valuable insights into the benefits and challenges of perceiving Ethics as a competitive advantage in digital innovation and especially in AI systems. \n\n\n\nFrance-Atlanta is an annual series of high-caliber events\, centered on innovation and designed to foster transatlantic cooperation and exchange in the fields of science\, business\, culture and global issues. This year\, 2024\, marks France-Atlanta’s 15th edition. The event series is co-organized by the Consulate General of France in Atlanta and the Georgia Institute of Technology\, under the high auspices of the Ambassador of France to the United States\, the Governor of Georgia and the Mayor of Atlanta. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:French in Higher Education: A Regional Seminar for Growth and Sustainability
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of the annual France-Atlanta series organized by Georgia Tech and the Embassy of France in the United States. \n\n\n\nVilla Albertine\, in partnership with Georgia Tech’s French program in the School of Modern Languages\, welcomes you to a France-Atlanta seminar\, French in Higher Education: A Regional Seminar for Growth and Sustainability. \n\n\n\nThis event is part of the French Embassy in the United States and Villa Albertine initiative for French in Higher Education. The initiative aims to support and foster innovation in French and Francophone studies across U.S. universities\, with a particular focus on addressing the critical challenge of increasing student enrollment. \n\n\n\nIn today’s globalized world\, understanding diverse communities\, excelling in international business\, and addressing global challenges are more important than ever. Language education is a key component of a well-rounded academic experience\, and learning French opens doors to a deeper appreciation of Francophone cultures\, histories\, and perspectives. Recruiting more students into French programs is thus essential to ensuring their sustainability and growth. Engaging with the cultural dimensions of the language not only enhances linguistic proficiency but also fosters cross-cultural understanding and empathy — essential skills in our interconnected world. \n\n\n\nAttendees will have the opportunity to exchange ideas\, collaborate on new initiatives\, and contribute to a global conversation about making French programs more dynamic\, resilient\, and relevant. Key topics will include effective communication with administration\, creating engaging study abroad programs\, implementing new teaching methodologies to connect with a diverse student body\, overcoming recruitment challenges\, strategies to attract students to French programs\, integrating digital tools and resources\, building interdisciplinary connections\, and creating professional pathways that link language learning with career opportunities. \n\n\n\nBy the end of this seminar\, participants will have identified strategies and best practices to maintain and attract new students. \n\n\n\nThis regional seminar is open to all French teachers and department heads from universities in Alabama\, Georgia\, Mississippi\, North Carolina\, South Carolina\, and Tennessee.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:International Business Webinar Series: The Varieties of Populism – Their Rise and Impact on Business & Society
DESCRIPTION:Today\, we have seen the rise of many populist leaders and parties across the globe. This has led to rising interest in the phenomenon of populism. However\, this interest\, particularly in the public domain has led to naive and stereotypical definitions and views on populism based on a few prominent contemporary cases. Yet populism has a long historical tradition\, particularly in the United States and South America\, and has its roots all the way back to Ancient Rome. In this webinar\, we discuss the nature of populism and its varieties\, and why today it is a mixture of factors we have seen before. Some appear new and unique but are still within the bounds of our understanding. \n\n\n\nKey takeaways: \n\n\n\n\nGain a clearer perspective on the populist wave of the last decade.\n\n\n\nAcquire a better understanding of how companies have\, and can\, address\, the political reality they are facing.\n\n\n\nDevelop an understanding of how the political structure of different countries can influence their susceptibility to the influence of fringe political ideologies.\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is FREE and open to all\, but registration is required. \n\n\n\nZoom details will be sent to all registered participants. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister
