WORLD COMPUTER DAY - Davos 2025 | Innovation Sessions
Join us at the inaugural WORLD COMPUTER DAY - Davos 2025. This full-day program focuses on exploring emerging technologies - including AI, Web3, and more - and the opportunities they present for the public and private sectors. As governments around the world struggle to keep up with the rapid pace of innovation, the day also examines how these technologies can be shaped, supported, or curbed by policies and regulation.
