Events for October 9, 2026

[]This talk will cover the status of fiber optic transceiver co-packaging efforts, both VCSEL- and SiPh-based, where they fit into the Ethernet switch market and the evolving Computer IO market, and how these technologies are advancing HPC (High Performance Computing), Data Center, and AI applications. The emphasis will be on new requirements and challenges driven by AI systems. Speaker(s): Dan Kuchta, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/568144

Session 3: (https://ieee-climatechain-hack.devpost.com/) Join us for Session 3 of the Learning & Training Series for the IEEE Global ClimateChain Hackathon 2026, a global initiative bringing together students, researchers, developers, industry professionals, and innovators to explore how Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, and emerging technologies can support climate action and sustainability. This session will focus on Ethics, Responsibility & Good Practices for Climate Innovation, exploring how ethical principles and responsible innovation can guide the development of technology-driven solutions for climate challenges. Participants will examine important considerations including responsible AI, data privacy and governance, transparency, accountability, bias, inclusivity, security, environmental impact, sustainability, and trust when applying AI, blockchain, and other emerging technologies. The session will also translate these principles into practical good practices for designing climate solutions, helping participants consider sustainability, scalability, measurable impact, stakeholder needs, and long-term value. Participants will gain practical perspectives to help them develop ClimateChain Hackathon projects that are ethical, responsible, trustworthy, sustainable, and capable of delivering meaningful climate impact.
