The Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI) and the Italian Institute for International Political Studies, in cooperation with The GovLab and Konrad Adenauer Stiftung, are pleased to co-host Digital Technologies: Building Global Trust as part of the Think20 (T20) Spring Roundtables.

Moderated by Bob Fay, managing director of digital economy at CIGI and co-chair of the T20 Task Force 4 (TF4) on Digital Transformation, the public panel discussion focuses on how to build global trust in digital technologies. Expert panellists include:

  • Maria Chiara Carrozza, President, Italian National Research Council (CNR), Italy; Lead Co-Chair of T20 TF4 on Digital Transformation
