F6S will be in Funchal, Madeira, for the 3rd edition of the Digital Transformation Summit (DTSummit) from 14 – 16 April 2026. This year, the summit is co-located with the I-ESA’26 Conference, creating a powerful synergy between digital policy, global research, and enterprise interoperability experts.
The DTSummit provides a high-level forum to discuss and debate the EU’s digital strategy, translating policy objectives into relevant pathways. Bringing together representatives from the European Commission, governments, academia, and industry, the event focuses on the “Digital Compass” targets for 2030, including digitally skilled professionals, secure infrastructures, and the transformation of businesses and public services. Hosting I-ESA’26 alongside the summit allows for a direct link between global interoperability research and the practical implementation of these digital and green goals.
