The event brought together more than 1.500 people.  The topic covered in this edition was “Artificial intelligence and digital transformation 4.0. in the economy, in companies and in society” with the opening speech given by Mr Luca de Meo, president of Seat.

During the talks which made up the programme on how digital transformation to 4.0 or the “fourth revolution” is affecting different fields such as finance, health, taxation, accounting, etc, the impact of robotisation was discussed, as well as business models and cybersecurity.  The new training needs that have arisen in order to adapt to these circumstances were also mentioned.
