Digital Day 2017

Celebrating the Treaties of Rome and looking into our common digital future, the Digital Day will put Europe’s digital challenges and future in the spotlight. It will explore the exponentially increasing role of digital in daily life of Europeans, their economy and society.

The event is organised around industrial competitiveness and societal challenges, and it will bring together Ministers, high-level representatives, key stakeholders in four different sessions:

• Europe as a global player in high performance computing
• Digitising European industry
• Towards connected and automated mobility
• The impact of digital transformation on jobs and skills

Ministers are expected to take the floor and are invited to sign declarations committing to concrete progress in high performance computing and connected and automated mobility. They will also drive forward the digitisation of European industry and address the social dimension of the digital single market.

Earlier, we use to say that all the roads go to Rome. Nowadays, digital networks and highways mean that all European citizens can get involved: all sessions will be web streamed  and our social media channels (#DigitalDay17) will give you the possibility to join the debate.

The Digital Day will be also the occasion for the launch of the new European Interoperability Framework!
