On 20 May 2026,
the Institute of Electronics and Computer Science (EDI) hosted EDI Day 2026,
bringing together technology experts, entrepreneurs, students, and innovation
enthusiasts to foster knowledge exchange, collaboration, and discussions on the
future of technology.
During the event, participants were introduced to EDI’s current projects,
research directions, and technological solutions across medical
technologies, sensing, robotics, artificial intelligence, the Internet of
Things, quantum technologies, imaging, and energy.
The event also featured the Swiss-Latvian Cooperation Programme project LACISE,
which addresses key challenges in the energy sector while supporting the
education and development of the next generation of scientists. Within the
project, researchers from Latvia and Switzerland are developing artificial
intelligence solutions to enhance the stability and security of the Baltic
electricity grid, advancing next-generation battery technologies, and improving
hydrogen production technologies. The importance of interdisciplinary and
international collaboration was highlighted as a driving force for innovation
and the implementation of sustainable energy solutions.
EDI Day 2026 served as a platform for knowledge sharing and collaboration,
showcasing LACISE’s contributions to sustainable energy development and to strengthening research excellence in Latvia.
