In 3 weeks,
EuroDIG2021
will already
be in full
swing and we
are
already
setting up the
venue –
virtually, of
course.
We
have
introduced
some changes
to make the
second virtual
EuroDIG more
interactive,
easier to
navigate and
even
more
community-focused.
Just like
last year, the
program will
take place in
different
studios across
Europe. You
will
be able to go
from Bruges to
Belgrade to
Trieste with a
simple click.
The studio
teams will
host the
sessions and
make it
possible for
us
to bring to
you a diverse
programme with
three parallel
tracks. To
make
networking
easier, our
virtual venue
will be built
in a
gather.town.
Participants
can walk
around and
start
conversations,
visit sessions
and booths.
At the end of
Day 1
(June 29), we
also have a
magical
surprise for
you on the
agenda.
Curious? In
order to
participate at
EuroDIG, all
you have to do
is register:
https://www.eurodig.org/get-involved/register-for-eurodig-2021/ Registration
is free
(a donation is
appreciated)
and open to
everyone!
