The role of digital in securing a green rural economy is the focus of a joint virtual conference being held by Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC) and Teagasc.
The potential of digitalisation to achieve a sustainable natural economy, which is the third in a series of annual events, will take place via a webinar on February 9.
It will bring perspectives and insights on the role of digital technologies to secure a green recovery in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
Professor Wayne Powell, principal and chief executive of SRUC, and Professor Gerry Boyle, Teagasc director, will jointly chair the event which will include four 15-minute sessions delivered by researchers from both institutions along with an open discussion.
