1st iNTeg-Risk Conference
Stuttgart, Germany, June 2-3, 2009


When, in October 02, 2006, about 25 professionals from EU industry, academia and research organizations met in Stuttgart, at premises of the at the time newly incorporated European Virtual Institute for Integrated Risk Management (EU-VRi, www.eu-vri.eu ) to discuss how to possibly best reply to the forthcoming FP7 1st call in the area of NMP (FP7 - The 7th Framework Programme of the EU, http://cordis.europa.eu/fp7/home_en.html ), three issues were shaping their brainstorming meeting: “New Technologies”, “emerging risks” and “integration”. The issues were highlighted already in the Strategic Research Agenda of the European Technology Platform Industrial Safety ETPIS ( www.industrialsafety-tp.org ), and it was clear that there were significant R&D needs in this area.


The results of the brainstorming was the FP7 proposal, now project iNTeg-Risk (Early Recognition, Monitoring, and Integrated Management of Emerging, New Technology related, Risks) based on the following cornerstones:


 

  1. Out of about 50 candidates considered by the group, 17 New Technologies were selected, and, labeled as ERRAs (Emerging Risk Representative Applications) – as examples and test bed.

  2. The definition of the “emerging risks” proposed by the EU OSHA Risk Observatory was adopted and embedded into the concept of the project.

  3. The integration concept has been proposed and it has involved two main elements: the “iNTeg-Risk ERMF” (Emerging Risk Management Framework), for integrating state-of-the-art methodologies, and the “iNTeg-Risk One-Stop-Shop” for integrating tools and practical solutions.


Over 80 institutions and companies with about 300 persons work in project tasks and the project involves the combined EU and stakeholders’ effort worth almost 20 million € for the next 4.5 years.

 

In June 2009 the project and the project stakeholders will share their first results, further plans and visions, both among themselves and also with other interested stakeholders. The event will be combined with a Post-Conference Workshop devoted to Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) of emerging risks and the project meetings (IAB and EB). For project partners, participation at the Conference is a part of their work in the project, for others, an occasion to get informed and, if opportune, get involved in the project. Therefore, for all interested in emerging risks and in “responsible development and use of New Technologies”, the 1st iNTeg-Risk Conference, combined with the respective exhibition and followed by the Post Conference Workshop, will be the right event and the right choice – we are looking forward to welcoming you in Stuttgart in June 2009!

Exhibition details

In parallel to the Conference an Exhibition will take place where iNTeg-Risk stakeholders have the chance to introduce themselves and their products and services. The obvious advantage of exhibiting parallel to this event are the face-to-face contacts, directly relations with the right people from industry, universities and other stakeholders and to experience the state-of-the-art in this rapidly expanding field. The Exhibition space will be located in front of the conference room.
