Digital participation in the countryside: innovation meets practice

Digital Participation Day 2025


What does digital transformation look like outside of urban centers? Alpha-Omega Technology invites you to Digital Participation Day 2025 to experience the opportunities offered by digitalization in rural areas—both locally and online. We have prepared practical presentations, inspiring success stories, and concrete application examples for you.


The focus is primarily on questions that are important in practice. How can digitalization strengthen rural areas? What can AI actually do in everyday business life? And how can the Internet of Things help make the world a little bit more sustainable?


A real highlight of the event is the SMARTinfeld smart village, which has been recognized by “Digital Places – Land of Ideas.” The project was launched by Alpha-Omega Technology. This forward-looking project for rural areas will be presented at the event. It shows how digital technologies can bring about lasting change in the region.
