Different talks have during the day touched or had as a main topic digital sovereignty. It has always been an important issue for a country like Switzerland, but becomes more and more important and urgent. Even if the basic tenet is accepted, the path forward, especially in the very complex situation with supply chains, international collaboration, the general complexity of todays societies is very much open to discussion. With the panelists that span very different view points and have different backgrounds we hope to explore some aspects of balancing how to proceed.
