DigiT Baltic 2021 – international conference organized by the Communications Regulatory Authority (RRT) and DigiTech Association “INFOBALT”. The conference is intended for various level representatives of the business sector from the Baltic and Nordic region.
The main objective is to raise awareness of various stakeholders in the Baltic and Nordic region about tools introduced by the EU’s eIDAS regulation.
Electronic signature, electronic seals, electronic time stamps, validation, preservation of electronic signatures/seals, and eID are used to ensure trust and security of digital operations. These tools and various practical aspects related to their use have become especially important due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The conference consists of the mainstream session with key presentations from regulators, EC, business for four thematic streams.
DigiT Baltic 2021 is planned as a hybrid event, based on a physical venue in Vilnius (Lithuania) and supplemented with a possibility to join the event virtually. The conference is held in English.
