SEASON’S GREETINGS!

December 22, 2021

It’s been a turbulent but also amazing year! Thanks to all for your hard work
over the last year in ramping up Digital Futures into one of Europe’s leading
research environments focusing on the sciences for digital transformation. Let
me take this opportunity to reflect on a few highlights from 2021 and some
coming activities in 2022.

The Digital Futures community is growing. About two hundred research leaders and
their teams are now engaged in projects and other activities. They work with the
broader industrial, societal, civil and academic communities represented by the
more than 2 500 people who now subscribe to our newsletter. Digital Futures
invest in fundamental cross-disciplinary research trying to understand the
implications of autonomy, machine learning, data privacy and cyber security on
our society and how digitalisation can transform the world into a more
sustainable and human place.

About seventy projects are now up and running. Many of them, such as the
research pairs, have enabled new collaborations across disciplines and support
young faculty members to strengthen their research agenda. International
recruitments of students, postdocs and faculty members are targeted through
various activities and instruments: career development workshops for postdocs
and fellowships for strategic faculty recruitments are two such examples
successfully implemented this year. Our Industrial and Societal Partnership
Program has established four new projects ranging from smart construction of
infrastructure to online rehabilitation of COVID-19 patients, illustrating how
by teaming up with the Stockholm City and Region and industrial partners we can
create competitive teams with the potential for real impact.

And what is coming 2022? We are starting off with a new C3.ai Digital
Transformation Institute call on AI to transform cybers-security and secure
critical infrastructure. Here Digital Futures faculty members will team up with
colleagues at UC Berkeley, UIUC, CMU, MIT, Princeton, Stanford, and the
University of Chicago, for instance, to develop AI algorithms that are resilient
to adversarial attacks. Our first scholars in residence will arrive at the
beginning of the year. They are internationally leading researchers, including a
Leibniz Prize awardee, who will give intensive PhD courses, engage in research
collaborations and much more. The Industrial and Societal Partnership Program
will continue to grow with new partners, projects and road-mapping. One
important component will be new instruments addressing the joint development and
use of testbeds, infrastructure and data. With these partners, we are also
looking forward to further developing our flagship event Digitalize in
Stockholm.

Let me finally extend a special thank you to our fantastic operations team:
Anna, Johanna, Linnea, Sissi and Åsa, you are doing an outstanding job running
Digital Futures and creating a warm and welcoming spirit for us all to enjoy.

Wishing you a happy and safe holiday season and a wonderful 2022!

Karl H Johansson

Director, Digital Futures
