Technology in the New World Order: Shaping or Being Shaped?
MENTA is the meeting point for key players in the digital economy, a space where executives and decision-makers shaping the future come together to explore the economic and social changes, trends, and strategies emerging from accelerating transformation.
A new world order is currently taking shape, where technology and digital solutions are increasingly seen as strategic factors in shaping political and economic relations. But what role does technology truly play in this transformation: is it shaping or suffering in this new era? MENTA ’25 presentations and panel discussions will explore this contradictory situation, while related workshops will focus on sharing practical experiences and applicable best practices.
Beyond the professional content, we offer numerous networking opportunities. Key players in the digital ecosystem can meet and share their ideas in Budapest.
Be a shaper of the digital future, participate, and let your voice be heard at this year’s MENTA conference!
