Overview

The webinar will explain how and why the Digitalisation Technical Advisory Group (DigiTAG) was set up in August 2020 and how it operated, promote the work that was done over the three year term, discuss some of the remaining challenges and how we see these being be taken forward by the Digitalisation Committee (DigiCom) which is now being formed. Digitalisation is an enabling priority topic.
