Digital Transformation and the Future of Work

Online Symposium - June, 25 - 26th, 2020

The global crisis brought by COVID-19 pandemic has pushed companies across the globe further into a digital world. However, it has also exposed the wide chasm between the enterprises that successfully embraced new digital trends and traditional businesses that may struggle to drive change during these chaotic and unprecedented times. Digital Transformation and the Future of Work Symposium maps the changing technological landscape in the current economic scenario as well as its impact on the labor market. In this event you will learn about how companies from different industries embrace digital trends accelerated by COVID-19 outbreak.

The Symposium, organized by IBS Americas, in association with public and private universities and foundations from Europe and the United States, is aimed at university students and young professionals with the objective of promoting debate on companies’ quest towards digital transformation amid the economic recession caused by COVID-19.
