About Gérald Santucci

Since 2017, Gérald Santucci has been the Ambassador of the INTEROP VLab, a member of the Sustainable Development Advisory Board, and an adviser to the Frankfurt Big Data Lab.In 2023, he has also been appointed President of the European Education New Society Association (ENSA), based in France and with a strong international reach.Before 2017, Gérald has been Advisor and Head of Unit at the European Commission’s Directorate‑General for Communications Networks, Content and Technology (DG CONNECT). He joined DG CONNECT in 1986, where he was called "the father of the AIM Programme" ("Advanced Informatics in Medicine", today the eHealth, Well-Being & Ageing Unit). From 1999 to 2016 he was Head of Unit for eGovernment (1999-2002), Trust & Security (2003), eBusiness (2004), Networked Enterprise and RFID (2005-2012), and Knowledge Sharing (2012-2016).

  • European Commission
    Adviser For Cross-Cutting Policy / Research Issues In Dg Connect
    European Commission Sep 2016 - Jun 2017
    Brussels Area, Belgium - Bu25 04/134
    In July 2016, after deep reflection I decided not to take up another job as Head of Unit. That decision was not easy to take - in eGovernment, Trust and Security, eBusiness, Networked Enterprise and RFID, Internet of Things, and Knowledge Sharing, I learnt that going beyond mere staff and budget management required a long term vision supported by strong commitment and dedication.In the public sector, it takes more or less three years to build a cohesive team and then a few more years to develop a vision, define clear objectives, devise and implement a strategy, carry out assessments and necessary adjustments, and finally see impact. In my role of eGovernment Head of Unit (1999-2012), it took two years to bring together the different local and regional networks (ELANET, TeleCities, eris@) in order to shape the "Three Roses" concept and make it a winning engine for initiating an EU strategy about Smart Cities. On RFID, it took three years to get a Communication adopted by the Commission (2007), another two years to successfully complete the related Recommendation on RFID privacy and security aspects (2009), two years again to obtain a consensus (Industry, Art. 29 Data Protection Working Party, Enisa) on the RFID Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) and the common European RFID sign (2011), and another three years, in association with DG GROW colleagues, to transform the PIA and sign into real European Norms (2014). Success is a jigsaw puzzle for which we need "to give time to time". I would have liked, to be honest, to manage again the Internet of Things Unit, but since 2012 many things have changed and I know the future of IoT cannot be written by looking in the rear-view mirror - past success doesn't make a good recipe for shaping a future in a fast changing, data-driven environment. Therefore I decided to opt for a role of Adviser who during one year will scrupulously plead for a systemic, integrated, multiple disciplinary approach to Policy and Research/Innovation.

    Head Of Unit "Knowledge Sharing" In Dg Connect
    European Commission Jul 2012 - Jun 2016
    Avenue De Beaulieu, 25 - 1160 Auderghem
    As DG INFSO of the European Commission was re-named DG CNECT (or "CONNECT"​), I moved from the Unit 'Networked Enterprise and RFID'​ to the new Unit 'Knowledge Sharing'​ where my role is to contribute to the creation of an interactive DG via enhanced collaborative working.The main goals are to advise the Director-General and top management on the new policy requirements and opportunities coming out of ICT evolution, ensure collaboration and synergy between the three pillars of the DG (research & innovation, policy, regulation), explore the conditions and opportunities of evidence-based policymaking, support knowledge sharing via a new intranet (called 'CONNECTED'), and assist Directorates in the elaboration of impact assessments and metrics.A very promising activity is "data4policy", an effort to bring together data techniques experts in the Commission and outside, including Big Data and data analytics, in order to improve the fundaments of policy making.My unit has been heavily involved in the development, in close association with and support to the Secretariat General, of the new guidelines for Better Regulation (2014-2015), especially by introducing the concept of 'Internet Readiness' (coined by my colleague John Doyle), carrying on the idea of 'digital checks' emitted by Vice President Ansip, and promoting Co-regulation and Self-regulation as policy options in the Better Regulation package.

  • European Commission
    Head Of Unit "Networked Enterprise And Rfid" In Dg Infso (Information Society And Media)
    European Commission Mar 2007 - Jun 2012
    Brussels Area, Belgium
    From 2006 onwards my activities extended from eBusiness and the networked enterprise to RFID (2005+) and Internet of Things (2007+). This marked my involvement at the same time in research management (FP6, FP7), innovation management (ICT PSP) and policy definition and implementation (RFID communication, RFID Recommendation, IoT Communication, etc.). FP7 projects were grouped in two successful clusters: FInES (Future Internet Enterprise Systems) and IERC (IoT European Research Cluster, which replaced the former RFID Cluster).Following the IoT Communication of June 2009, I set up a formal IoT Expert Group composed of some 40 representatives from industry, academia, government, civil society, trade unions, etc. The objective was to draft a Commission Recommendation on the governance of the IoT (identification; privacy and security; ethics; architectures; standardisation; an EU federated Object Naming Service). But when I left the unit in July 2012 to pick up a new function, this activity was abandoned (to my regret).
  • European Commission
    Head Of Unit "E-Business" In Dg Infso (Information Society And Media)
    European Commission Mar 2004 - Feb 2007
    Bu25 At Auderghem, Belgium
    When I arrived in the unit there was a large portfolio of 175 FP5 funded projects, including 40% paid 100% of eligible costs as coordination and support actions. Projects were totally independent and actually very few of them achieved meaningful results. As we were just starting FP6, but too late for influencing the Call 1 proposal evaluation and selection, I imposed the creation of "clusters" which, through the principle of "concertation" that prevailed in the RACE/ACTS and Telematics Applications (TAP) Programmes, enabled collaboration and creation of synergy between projects working on the same technologies or developing similar applications or addressing common socio-economic challenges. After one year I decided to stop one cluster due to a lack of commitment from the majority of project participants while two other clusters went on and after a few years delivered great results: Enterprise Interoperability; Digital Business Ecosystems (DBE). DBE was a really disruptive vision (SME networks based on an open source infrastructure) that produced great results until a successful conference in Brussels on 7/11/2007). However, for unknown reasons, this pioneering initiative was not continued in FP7.At the same time, the unit started to explore the requirements and options for an EU policy on RFID. The creation within the unit of the RFID sector (Head of Sector: Florent Frederix) supported a dynamic activity, reinforced by a RFID cluster of EU-funded projects, which resulted in a Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament and the Council in March 2007. In the last paragraph of this Communication the phrase "Internet of Things" was mentioned for the first time in an EU formal document. International cooperation, in particular with the U.S., was very successful (Transatlantic RFID Conferences in Washington, D.C.., and in Brussels, 2007-2008).

    European Commission Jan 2003 - Feb 2004
    Trust and SecurityA (too) short foray into trust and security technologies. However, I have kept nice memories of the many academic researchers met and the good results achieved in the fields of smart cards, biometrics, and encryption.My biggest satisfaction was the creation, with the Irish Government, of the European Biometrics Forum (EBF), http://www.eubiometricsforum.com/Another achievement was the launch of the eJustice Integrated Project which, with only €4 million, brought together ICT (in particular biometrics) and process technologies to drastically improve the potential for justice efficiency and effectiveness.

    Applications relating to administrations (e-Government). My unit managed some 40 EU-funded projects grouped in two "clusters"​ supporting 'concertation'​ on technology, applications, standards, etc.:- Smart Government- e-Democracy (e-voting, i-voting)I've been proud to promote e-government at local and regional level, especially through the development of a sustained, dynamic cooperation between the then main city and regional networks (TeleCities, ELANET, ERIS@).The e-democracy projects which we supported in the early 2000's (E-POLL, CYBERVOTE, AGORA2000, WEBOCRACY, etc.) have never been supplanted so far.I organised in November 2001 the first Ministerial Conference on eGovernment, which took place in Brussels and was concluded by a Ministerial Declaration (see attachment). Such conferences were set up on a regular basis after 2003.

    1988-1990: Temporary Agent, responsible for the planning and subsequent implementation of the AIM (Advanced Informatics in Medicine) Definition Phase. I was considered the "father" of AIM, which continues today (some 25 years later) as the eHealth domain of the ICT programme. In 1989, I assembled a group of multidisciplinary specialists (the AIM Requirements Board, ARB) to examine urgently, on a wide basis, the factors that would influence health care as well as health information systems in the coming decade: what would be the “added value” of European developments in Information and Communication Technologies for health care? The ARB identified challenges, difficulties and opportunities.1991-1992: Author of a Communication on the Semiconductor industry and another Communication on the Telecom Equipment industry. Involved in trade discussions in the framework of the Uruguay Round, with special focus on semiconductors (tariffs, rules of origin, market barriers, etc.).1993-1999: Established Agent, Advisor to the Director of the Telematics Applications Programme (Michel Richonnier), then Deputy Head of Unit in the coordination unit.

    Seconded from Paris to DG XIII to contribute to the development of the RACE programme (R&D for Advanced Communications in Europe). From April 1986 onwards, in charge of the BICEPS planning exercise, which will become the 18-month definition phase of the AIM programme (Advanced Informatics in Medicine) in February 1989. BICEPS was "Bio-informatics: Collaborative European Programmes and Strategies" - a visionary concept (thanks to Director Roland Hüber) of the integration between Healthcare, Biology and Biotechnology, which unfortunately could not be implemented because of the difficulty to organise close cooperation between two different Directorates-General (XIII and XII). After a successful conference in Brussels on 16/10/1986 (more than 100 participants), DGXIII dropped the acronym "BICEPS" and replaced it with the acronym "AIM", focusing on the application of communications technologies to the field of healthcare.
