The Project

The Governmental Day is a workshop concept of the aconium GmbH that is implemented in the frame of different events focusing on broadband development and digitisation.

The Governmental Day Workshop provides an interactive platform for European broadband stakeholders. In particular, the workshop tackles the challenges of broadband deployment and digitisation for municipalities, regions and their public administration. It informs about political developments at European level, presents innovative best-practice solutions and supports the establishment of a strong community of all actors involved in the digitisation process. It is always intended to integrate and activate the participants, e.g. in discussion rounds, workings sessions or multilogs.

The Governmental Day Workshop addresses policy makers, public officials, and regional and local bodies. It includes keynotes by the European Commission and presentations from the Member States of the European Union. In addition, panel discussions and interactive sessions and participatory processes will be held covering key topics in broadband and digitisation in Europe.

Each Governmental Day Workshop is planned individually to meet the needs and expectations of the respective event.
