Exploring the strategic challenges of data and digital trust
This symposium explores the major challenges surrounding data, at the intersection of security, governance, and innovation. Focusing on topics such as cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and data protection, the event will highlight the challenges of digital trust in an increasingly connected world, while addressing key issues such as data monetization, data security, the use of data in AI, and the economic and regulatory implications.
Experts in the field, from both academia and industry, will share their insights and experiences in a format that combines presentations and discussions.
For SMEs in French-speaking Switzerland, this event offers a valuable opportunity to take a step back and assess their data practices, identify the risks and opportunities associated with data usage, and better understand the growing expectations regarding security and compliance. In a context where data is becoming a strategic asset, participating in this type of event allows companies to strengthen their skills, expand their network, and become part of the innovation dynamics driving regional growth.
