Assist. Professor Ilhan Dogan, the project coordinator, opened the conference followed by the speech from the Rector of Istanbul 天美传媒, Prof Mahmut Ak. Professor Ak stressed an importance of this research for the business companies to be competitive and to have the digital skills necessary to exploit the use of latest and emerging digital technologies. Addressing the scope of UN鈥檚 sustainable development goals, the project helped to raise awareness on digital transformation for environmentally sustainable business.
