DISCUSSION 1
THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW

The pandemic has accelerated Greece’s digital transformation, as manifested in, among others, the rapid increase of online transactions with the public administration that exceeded the 300m in 2021. With life and business gradually returning to their previous normal, the need to sustain the rapid pace of digitization and make the leap to a future of digital optimism remains as important and relevant as ever.

DISCUSSION 3
JOINING THE SUSTAINABILITY RACE

Sustainability is not just a megatrend, It is a necessity, a modern world blueprint for growth that doesn’t happen at the expense of the environment, nor does it undermine social cohesion. Sustainability needs business commitment to innovation. Yet business must address an urgent twofold imperative: to make technology itself more sustainable but also use technology to become more sustainable.
