'Recruitment today is much more about the experience of work than about filling vacancies in concrete terms. ABN Amro launched a campaign culminating in an augmented reality escape room: The Lockdown. Nowhere in the game does the bank's name appear, until the final screen. Result? The Lockdown is recognized better than previous campaigns and the number of respondents has increased significantly.

'Hogeschool Utrecht talked about blockchain in general and the blockchain lab at HU. There was interest from the audience to learn more about how this works. On the basis of a use-case the approach for Blockchain implementations was explained'.

'Poverty alleviation and the use of blockchain do not seem to go well together. Validating the payment traffic of clients to be supported has privacy issues in which blockchain - i.e. always storing data - does not fit.'

'KLM is a large organization, where with every innovation not only the suitability must be considered, but also the scalability of the solution. In collaboration with colleges and universities, KLM is working on its focus for innovation: services around the primary flight process. Experiment (X-gate, X-hangar, X-people, X-flight) space is organized .........'

'One of the innovations at UMC Utrecht is image-guided radiotherapy, which makes sessions more efficient and reduces the number of treatments the patient needs. Another innovation is the ALS speech computer, in which a brain implant can convert thoughts - via a computer - into speech.

'Vanderlande took us through the first steps of printing, checking in and handling baggage. With this efficiency improvement, a passenger can head for the security check within 3 minutes. Following the presentation and a possible blockchain-like setup of verification and authorization of baggage handling, a lively discussion ensued.'

Stephan Peters - Inholland University of Applied Sciences

'Nice examples about AI at Department of Defense presentation'

Jeroen Maas - TU Delft

'Inholland had an inspiring story about collaborating with other parties to achieve innovations. Together with SURFnet, they have developed SURFcumulus, a cloud platform for educational institutions in which several suppliers participate. When migrating to the cloud, you have to be willing to leave old ideas behind, for example about backup strategies. The cloud has its own best practices.'

Utrecht University is working on IT innovations for animals - and eventually, perhaps, for humans. By measuring horse movements with infrared cameras and sensors, location and cause of abnormal symmetry can be pinpointed. With the mobile version of measuring equipment, more and more data can be gathered to do research. But how do you store that data? And how can AI help discover patterns in this data?'

Veronique Blommaert - Utrecht University

"Cloud implementation at Inholland, instructive story and smart approach and use of community/SURF as an organization.
