EPTA Conference 2016
This year's EPTA conference will take place in the Austrian Parliament in Vienna and will be devoted to the future of labour in the digital era.
On 21 October 2017 members of parliament of EPTA members will discuss the political dimension of the impact of digitization and robotics on the labour market with experts and selected stakeholders from Europe and beyond. Ubiquitous computing, virtual platforms, and real-time production are about to change our world and are politically highly salient.
