Technology has revolutionized our world, bringing about change.
It has played a huge impact on societies and most recently, the covid-19 pandemic became a driving force for change, accelerating the rate of digitalization and virtualization of business and society through network speeds, big data, cloud computing and remote working.
The technological revolution has also taken center stage in today’s global power struggle. The war in Ukraine has unveiled the need for Europe to adopt an ambitious digital diplomacy strategy, with the EU launching new digital partnerships and alliances aiming to reduce dependency on China and Russia.
Against this setting, The Economist Impact Events have great pleasure in hosting the Greek minister of digital governance, Kyriakos Pierrakakis and well renowned Chris Messina who invented the hashtag, in an onstage meaningful discussion with The Economist chair, John Andrews, at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center.
We encourage you to book your seat for the Gala Dinner and take part in the conversation on “TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION IN 2023 AND BEYOND: Designing, inventing, changing“.
