INPACE Ask Us Anything Session: A Successful Exchange of Ideas and Opportunities

On 30 June 2025, INPACE hosted its first-ever Ask Us Anything online session, a dynamic and interactive event designed to foster open dialogue, share insights, and strengthen connections across the EU-Indo-Pacific digital collaboration ecosystem.

This one-hour session offered participants a unique opportunity to:

  • Gain a clear and concise overview of the INPACE initiative and its mission
  • Ask direct questions to the INPACE team
  • Discover collaboration opportunities with INPACE and get involved with the key stakeholders

Svetlana Klessova, INPACE Project Coordinator from G.A.C. Group, delivered an insightful presentation outlining INPACE’s core mission: to support the implementation of the Digital Partnerships between the European Union and Japan, South Korea, Singapore, as well as the Trade and Technology Council with India.

She introduced the INPACE Hub as the gateway to EU–Indo-Pacific digital collaboration — a vibrant, cutting-edge digital platform focused on five key areas:
🔹 Digital Policy & Education
🔹 Innovation – Applications for Sustainable Well-being
🔹 Trustworthy Decision Support
🔹 Future Chip Technologies
🔹 Future Networks

Members of the INPACE Hub are invited to connect with top tech and policy specialists from across the regions, explore funding opportunities, share events, initiate joint research, and even position themselves or their projects as speakers at events across Europe, Japan, India, Singapore, and South Korea.

Participants also learned about INPACE’s:

  • Thematic Working Groups
  • Pilot projects and potential for contributions
  • Virtual fairs and webinars to promote technologies and innovations
  • The upcoming EU–Indo-Pacific Digital Partnership Conference, taking place in Singapore on 28-29 October 2025

The session continued with a vibrant Q&A segment, where attendees raised thoughtful questions around collaboration opportunities, joining the Thematic Working Groups, and engaging more actively through the INPACE Hub.
