The Presidents Conference takes place twice a year and is the opportunity for SIG presidents to network amongst themselves and to update the SI community on their activities. The program for the event encompasses a variety of subjects ranging from arts and informatics and digital heritage to bitcoin and life long learning for IT professionals.
