The event programme includes official welcome addresses by the Chairman of the SETPE Board of Directors, Anastasios Manos, and the Chairman of the MASIT Board of Directors, Jordan Dimitrovski, as well as contributions from government officials and diplomatic representatives. The Ambassador of Greece to North Macedonia, Sofia Filippidou, will also address the event with a welcome speech.

The programme also includes presentations on the ICT ecosystems of Greece and North Macedonia, as well as contributions highlighting digital transformation needs in key sectors of the economy. Particular emphasis will be placed on strategic areas such as energy and green technologies, agri-food and smart farming, manufacturing and Industry 4.0, as well as the financial and public sectors.

The Digital Bridge & Business ICT Forum builds on SETPE’s international outreach strategy and aims to establish a stable channel for business connectivity between the ICT markets of Greece and North Macedonia.

The objective of the event is to create a favourable environment for synergies both among technology companies from Greece and North Macedonia and between ICT companies and businesses from other sectors seeking digital transformation solutions.

The Digital Bridge & Business ICT Forum aims to serve as a practical platform for building long-term partnerships, strengthening regional technology cooperation and further expanding the presence of Greek ICT companies in the wider Southeast European market.
