On 17th December, DIGIS3, in collaboration with the AIR Institute, invites you to an event to learn about the latest trends and technologies that are revolutionising the rural environment.
This online, free-of-charge conference, running from 09:30 to 18:00, offers the opportunity to connect with experts and professionals in innovation, rural cohesion, and disruptive technologies, as well as discover both public and private initiatives that can serve as valuable references.
The main objective of the event is to reduce the inequalities between urban and rural environments, promoting initiatives that allow rural communities to stay up-to-date with technological advancements. To achieve this, attendees will enjoy a programme full of presentations, round tables, and debates addressing the key challenges facing rural areas as they transition to a more digital and connected future.
