This is the fourth year of Digital West, and just one in a number of initiatives planned as part of the creation and rollout of a digital strategy for Mayo.
On 15 December 2020, the final draft of the “Regulation on a Single Market For Digital Services (Digital Services Act)” was introduced. This legislation, once ratified, will support European Digital Transformation ambitions and create a safer, harmonised open digital space across the EU. The movement to digitally transform EU business and society is accelerating.
This Digital West event examines some of the key digital transformation themes. This informative event, coupled with GMIT programme digital education provision for individuals, entrepreneurs and SMEs aims to accelerate, upskill and support beneficial technology advancement in the West of Ireland.
The free online event will be streamed live.
