Bologna is scheduled to host two distinct professional conferences in late 2026. 

In late October, the city will host the 16th GDPR Day, a national conference on data protection organized by the Club Nazionale Cyberprotection. Marking ten years of the GDPR, the event focuses on the transition from formal compliance to practical verification, covering topics such as the AI Act, NIS2, and the intersection of data privacy and cybersecurity.

Following this, from November 17 to 20, the ASITA Federation will hold the Italian Conference on Geomatics and Geospatial Technologies. This event focuses on the theme “Protagonists of change: from resilience to territorial regeneration,” addressing the use of geographic data, geospatial artificial intelligence, and digital twins in managing environmental and territorial challenges.
