The AMPLIFY, HAMLET and ELLIE projects are organising an Online Policy Panel for Wednesday, 14th October 2026, from 14:30 to 16:00 CEST where ECHOES will be represented by Agiatis Benardou.
AMPLIFY aims to facilitate the digital transition in the creative and cultural industries.
HAMLET will use Generative AI to support artists, designers, game developers, and cultural professionals.
ELLIE will implement cutting-edge technologies to create immersive experiences that connect people with history and traditions.
The objective of the policy panel is for AMPLIFY, ELLIE and HAMLET to explore together a hypothetical cross-project workflow:
Music creative input → AI-supported movement → Immersive learning experience
Using this scenario as a practical case, the discussion will examine which technical and policy barriers (and potential synergies) emerge when creative technologies developed across different projects are connected. The panel will focus on interoperability, rights and reuse, human control and responsibility, and what policy, funding and shared infrastructures could do to make cross-project collaboration easier and more sustainable. The aim is to identify practical policy signals and recommendations, with the possibility of developing a short joint policy note after the event.
The Panel structure is as follows:
14:30–14:35 Welcome & framing: Introduction to the panel objective, central question and speakers.
14:35–14:40 Cross-project scenario: Presentation of the hypothetical workflow.
14:40–14:50 Audience input (to be decided): Short interactive Mentimeter questions.
14:50–15:05 Discussion Pillar 1 — Connecting the tools in practice
15:05–15:20 Discussion Pillar 2 — Rights, consent and reuse
15:20–15:35 Discussion Pillar 3 — Human control and responsibility
15:35–15:50 Discussion Pillar 4 — Making collaboration easier and sustainable
15:50–16:00 Audience Q&A, closing and key policy signals.
