At the time of the Portuguese Presidency of the Council of the EU, the “Second EU-Brazil Conference on Digital Economy and Innovation: Connectivity and New Digital Infrastructures” aims at identifying areas for stakeholder cooperation between the EU and Brazil, regarding digital trade and emerging technologies. Participants will explore key issues such as new digital infrastructures, 5G, the Internet of Things and its applications, and new connectivity models. The agenda of this webinar has been crafted based on the outcomes of the First EU-Brazil Conference on Digital Economy and Innovation, held in March 2021, aimed at tackling digital cooperation and understanding how digital trade may be fostered more straightforwardly. The event is being organized by FGV and EUBrasil.
