ArGe ÖFG Digitale Transformation – Virtual Roundtable on Resilience and Digital Transformation

Digital transformation is a major societal challenge and opportunity. The working group ArGe Digitale Transformation is an academic platform that addresses and discusses exactly these issues with the ultimate goal of contributing to the discourse in Austria.   

The first virtual roundtable discussed resilience in relation to digital transformation. Different propositions by participants highlighted various key factors that are of relevance regarding the relationship between resilience and digital transformation and that potentially determine how digitalization affects society in the long term. This roundtable was the first in a series of workshops to be held over the upcoming two years.
