What does 1 represent in Binary Code?
This most basic of computing and programming code is light years away from the topic discussed at the APDC Congress.

On May 10, at 11:30 the discussion topic will be "Quantum Communication and Computing", the technological hype that is on its way to overtake artificial intelligence and machine learning. Our researcher and Associate Professor at the Universidade de Aveiro, Armando Nolasco Pinto, is invited as a keynote speaker.

From ecosystems and digital assets to changes in the financial system and the advance of regulated digital currencies, from the transformation of public administration to changes in the labor market, digital technologies are changing everything and everyone at an ever-increasing pace.

Artificial intelligence, 5G, automation, metaverse, tokenization, quantum computing, cybersecurity, and cloud are technologies that will bring profound changes, if not revolutions, at both economic and social levels. Many of them aren’t even foreseeable yet, in a world that continues to face numerous interconnected challenges for which answers urgently need to be found.

At the APDC Congress, we’ll discuss the major technological upheavals and their foreseeable impact, promote a shared debate, and identify ways forward for our common future. This will be the stage par excellence for the exchange of ideas and synergies between all stakeholders.
