Join the Winter Feast 2025! The event is an opportunity to celebrate our collective successes, share insights, and connect with one another.

We’ll enjoy good food and reflect on the milestones of the year, illustrated by results from the projects supported by DigiSus. We hope to build connections that will strengthen the DigiSus community and drive forward the digitalisation and sustainability transitions in the coming years. Winter Feast warmly welcomes researchers, collaborators from public, private and third sectors, as well as anyone working in the intersection of digitalisation and sustainability to join.
