By following the Conference you will learn

European Digital Tech Watch and the Intelligent Business Process Automation Observatory are jointly organizing an international event to assess where major European companies stand in terms of digitalization. In the morning session, research results from surveys, interviews, and focus groups involving over 1,000 large companies across Europe are presented. These findings explore the key directions companies are taking on technological topics such as computing, data management, cybersecurity, and AI & Automation. The Intelligent Business Process Automation Observatory will focus on process automation opportunities, discussing use cases, technological choices and challenges within enterprises. The impact of AI & Automation on jobs will also be addressed.

In the afternoon, the Digital Innovation Observatories will host the Intelligent Automation Congress, the annual gathering of the Intelligent Automation community — a network of professionals from across Europe and beyond. The congress workshops will include both theoretical contributions and hands-on sessions.

For in-person attendees, there will be dedicated networking moments and a networking area with stands to foster connections and collaboration. ONLY the morning session will be available remotely via streaming.

On the day of the event it will be possible to download the Research booklet for free.

The complete proceedings, including the Video on demand of the conference, will be available in premium mode from the days following the event.
