Calum Chace has been invited as one of the keynote speakers at the Digital Agenda Cyprus Summit 2023, scheduled to take place on 17 October at the Nicosia Municipal Theatre.
The 6th Digital Agenda Cyprus Summit 2023, centered around the theme "The New Normal," will address contemporary issues impacting humanity at the local and regional levels. It will cover topics like artificial intelligence, the evolving work environment, toxic communication, climate change in daily life, the better-late-than-never electrification of the automotive sector in Cyprus, the challenges in achieving energy self-sufficiency, and the interconnectedness of mental and physical health. Additionally, diversity will be emphasized as the new norm. This prominent conference in Nicosia promises to be the largest gathering for exploring new-age perspectives.
The Digital Agenda Cyprus Summit is made possible through the support of Cyta and the Bank of Cyprus.
