Challenging times require flexible solutions, so the event was turned into a hybrid-version last minute. It was an incredibly insightful day discussing the opportunities the 14th five-year plan holds for Austrian companies, the upcoming challenges and deep diving into the topics of finance, data regulation & data security, as well as green-tech.
