01

Turning Europe’s digital ambition into action

Join DXC Technology at the Digital Innovation Forum 2026 at Villa Erba, Cernobbio (Lake Como) on 14–16 October 2026, and explore how institutions and enterprises are strengthening Europe’s digital independence, modernising public services and building trusted, AI-ready foundations for the future.

 

As Forum Partner, DXC brings decades of institutional trust and delivery depth across Italy’s public and private sectors — the one partner for AI, cloud and sovereign technology. Alongside institutions, technology leaders, investors and researchers, we’ll explore one central question: how can Europe turn digital ambition into action?

 

At this year’s Forum, DXC leaders take the stage across three sessions — spanning digital sovereignty and geopolitics, digital public administration and health, and AI and cybersecurity for a common European defence — sharing how dual-sector delivery experience translates into measurable outcomes for Italy and Europe.
