Geneva Day - Pioneering Digital Trust - A Commitment to the Future

Digital acceleration due to the Covid-19 pandemic has once again highlighted the profound ethical implications of digital transformation for decades to come. How can we strengthen and rebuild trust in emerging digital technologies to support a sustainable recovery from the pandemic? What are solutions for a trustworthy and responsible digitalisation? What is the relevance of digital trust in a changing world with increasing geopolitical tensions? The topics of digital trust and responsibility have never been as present and important.
