As the deadline for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (also known as the SDGs) approaches, it is critical that we work together and accelerate our efforts to make the world a better place. DigiQuest Amsterdam is a step toward Inholland's goal of educating a new generation of digitally competent leaders.
Throughout this programme and the 3-day event in November 2023, we hope to encourage students to pursue new solutions and foster a collaborative atmosphere in which businesses, aspiring professionals, and scholars can meet and learn from one another, ultimately creating a greater impact together.
At Inholland University of Applied Sciences, we believe that the emerging digital economy will assist us in meeting the SDGs by 2030. We are delighted to introduce DigiQuest Amsterdam, an immersive experience that investigates the potential of the digital economy, including blockchain, big data, and AI, in collaboration with the IBCOL Foundation.
