Hundreds attended Connecting the State 2024
There was great interest in the conference this year, which had the theme of Change Management, with a special focus on the implementation of digital services and processes. About 500 people attended the conference and about 150 watched online streaming. The intensive and successful workshops that took place on the morning of the conference are now being processed and the feedback received from the conference attendees. The recognition for Digital Steps of Institutions was granted for the third time and we congratulate all those who have taken digital steps during the year. See you next year!
