The Principality's Digital Transition is Scrutinised by Experts
On Friday 15 November, at the Yacht Club of Monaco and under the Presidency of H.S.H. Prince Albert II, the Principality brought together its group of digital experts, which is known as the Monaco Digital Advisory Council (MDAC). The meeting took place in the presence of Jean Castellini, Minister of Finance and Economy.
This committee of global experts from the public and private sectors in the field of digital technology was created in November 2018. It is led by Frédéric Genta, Country Chief Digital Officer, and its main task is to advise Monaco on its strategic vision for digital technology and on the implementation of its actions.
"Digital transition is the greatest challenge for countries, companies and individuals. The positioning of each entity and the ability to benefit from this revolution will determine the winners of the present and future economy," stated Frédéric Genta.
