The regional conference on trends in telecommunications and media – DIGITAL 2022 will be held this year on September 15 and 16, 2022 at the Metropol Hotel in Belgrade.

The conference, traditional and highly visited event since 2014, gathers market leaders, experts in telecommunications and all types of media, as well as all the leaders of the digital industries that drive the economy in Serbia, all in one place to discuss future trends and expectations.

We will have an opportunity to hear more about what the world of media, telecommunications and digital trends looked like and will look like, and what topics will mark the next period in these areas.

We will talk about the boom in film and television production, the Serbian IT scene, how popular digital products are created, are we safe in the virtual world, what’s new on the social media scene in our region and many other topics.
