To cope with the trends of digitalization and circular economy, 2023 eASIA Awards comprises three categories, namely: (1) Smart Governance & Management; (2) Digital Transformation for SMEs; and (3) Sustainability & Circular Economy, meaning to provide a more efficient channel to demonstrate the accomplishments of data-driven value creation and digital transformation via public-private partnership realized by open data utilization.
AFACT Members are welcome to submit outstanding projects to the Permanent Secretariat via email: afact.asia@gmail.com or wendyyang@iii.org.tw by October 15 for preliminary evaluation.
