1. Work Smart: Understand how digitalization optimizes job and top sharing
Digitalization creates a great challenge as well as an opportunity for HR and Management Departments of companies.

It also increases the ability to work more horizontally in the work environment. Our speakers and panelists will help you figure out how digitalization will shape a better workplace.

Several slashers on the panels will provide testimonials about their current experience. Employees and freelancers will gain a better understanding of the benefits of having multiple careers at the same time. Employers will see how they can benefit from having employees with slash careers.
