Living-in.EU will be present at the #EURegionsWeek 2023 and will organise a political lab session on "How cross-border regions and cities will accelerate the Digital Decade".

The goal of the session is to imagine a Europe without borders in which daily life of citizens is supported by seamless digital services and Local Digital Twins will enable cross-border interoperable infrastructure. But what are the challenges that we face? And what solutions are there?

Through a curated conversation a diverse group of speakers (political leader, ecosystem and technology) will share the stories and challenges to create cross-border interoperability through digital transformation. In this regard, connectivity, interoperability and faster data-transfer speeds are needed for the implementation of digital solutions for which the 5G for Smart Communities Platform will also be presented during the session.

This will set the stage for a participatory session on how cross-border regions can cooperate with each other when implementing digital solutions. Lastly, the important role of Living-in.EU in accelerating the Digital Decade will be explained, and participants will be invited to join the movement.
