XII-th INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE

Organised by:

University College of Business

“DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: ECONOMIC, LEGAL AND SOCIAL PERSPECTIVES”

Conference Date : June 05, 2026

The theme of the 12th International Scientific Conference, “Digital Transformation and Artificial Intelligence: Economic, Legal, and Social Perspectives,” represents one of the most important developments of our time. The advancement of digital technologies and
the widespread integration of artificial intelligence is transforming the way economies, institutions, and modern societies operate. The digitization of processes, automation, and the large-scale use of data are creating new models of economic development and institutional organization.
However, these developments also bring significant challenges, which require in-depth scientific analysis, such as the legal regulation of new technologies, data protection, cybersecurity, and the impact of artificial intelligence on the labor market and social relationships. For this reason, addressing digital transformation requires a multidisciplinary approach that would link the economic, legal, and social perspectives. The conference aims to serve as an academic platform for researchers, academics, and
professionals from various fields to discuss the developments, challenges, and opportunities related to digital transformation and artificial intelligence, contributing to the advancement of scientific research and academic debate on this current and far-reaching topic.
