Making Federated Learning Private and Secure

>> PLEASE NOTE <<

>> New update due to Coronavirus development: With regards to the lockdown in Italy and the overall uncertainty around Europe, we couldn’t proceed with organising the Hackathon remotely as previously announced. We have decided to postpone both Hackathon and Meetup until further notice. We will keep you updated regarding the potential future dates for scheduling the Musketeer/XAIN Hackathon & Meetup as it was initially planned.

Thank you for your understanding. Stay safe and help protect the ones more vulnerable to the Coronavirus. <<

Welcome back to Federated Learning meetup community!

After our first kick-off meeting, where we presented a general intro to Federated Learning, it is time to dive deeper into this topic.

On this day, after morning hackathon, the evening will be reserved for all those who are interested in learning more about the security and privacy of Federated Learning algorithms.

At this meetup, we will guide you through the most relevant learnings from the hackathon and share personal experiences of participants.

More details on the topic and speakers will be revealed in the following days.
