Dear Cooperation Working Group, I hope this e-mail finds you well.
I'm Emanuele Iovini and I work at Europol the European Cybercrime Centre (EC3). I believe it could be valuable to share this message here. Among many initiatives in Europe, EC3 launched a Cyber Innovation Forum (CIF) that brings together law enforcement, policymakers, industry, and academia to explore cutting-edge approaches to cybercrime investigation and prevention. The forum aims to foster collaboration, share practical innovations, and shape the future response to cybercrime. The EC3 Policy and Development team just announced a Call-for-Proposals for the EC3 Cyber Innovation Forum 2026 (CIF2026). The aim of the Call-for-Proposals is to find original and impactful ideas that support law enforcement innovation in cybercrime investigation, prevention, and resilience. Are invited, including but not limited to: * Tools and technologies supporting cybercrime detection, investigation, attribution, and disruption; * Research papers and applied studies with operational, strategic, or policy relevance; * Investigative techniques and methodologies, including cross-border and multi-stakeholder approaches; * Legislation, regulatory frameworks, and legal analysis related to cybercrime and digital evidence; * Policies, strategies, and best practices for prevention, capacity building, and public-private cooperation; * Case studies and lessons learned from real-world operations or implementations. Submissions may be conceptual, technical, operational, legal, or policy-oriented, provided they offer clear value to the cybercrime ecosystem. Proposals can be submitted until Friday, 19 June 2026 at 23:59 (CET - Amsterdam time). The CIF2026 will take place the second week of October 2026 (date to be confirmed). More information can be found in the link below: https://www.europol.europa.eu/about-europol/european-cybercrime-centre-ec3/call-for-proposals-ec3-cyber-innovation-forum-2026 I will also be in Edinburgh for RIPE92 from the 19th to the 21th of May if anyone wants to chat in person with me.
