CECIMO will organise a high-level videoconference “From crisis to opportunity: Digital solutions for a sustainable economic recovery” on 25 February 2021, from 10:45 to 12:15 in the framework of this year’s EU Industry Days.
EU Industry Days is Europe’s flagship annual event on industry. It is the main platform to discuss industrial challenges and co-develop opportunities and policy responses in an inclusive dialogue with a wide range of partners.
This event will focus on the uptake of new digital technologies and their impact on economic, social, behavioural, and business opportunities, areas that are critical to enable economic growth and sustainable development. The event will also discuss how to ensure and maximize the benefits of digital technologies for a sustainable economic recovery.
The conference is meant to be an exchange of views on the new business processes and models needed to speed up the uptake of disruptive technologies in European manufacturing. We will address the issue of cultural change as well as other challenges companies and their workers face while implementing and using digital solutions.
