The Department for E-Governance and Administration welcomes Argentine and European partners to Krems for an exchange on AI in government and business and future collaboration.
On 16 and 17 September 2026, the University for Continuing Education Krems hosted a two-day meeting of UNI UEAR, the Argentine European University Alliance for Digital Transformation. Participants reviewed project results and discussed digital transformation in public administration.
Lucy Temple moderated expert roundtables alongside Associate Professor Gabriela Viale Pereira and Professor Elsa Estevez from Argentina’s National Interuniversity Council and Universidad Nacional del Sur. The discussions focused on developing an agenda for future cooperation on digital transformation between Argentina and Europe.
Dr. Heidrun Maurer presented the case of Lower Austria, examining how to build regional capacity for AI in public administration. The wider programme addressed AI-driven organisational change, emergency response, creative industries and workforce reskilling.
The meeting connected the department’s research with practical experiences from Argentina and Europe and provided an opportunity to identify shared research interests and explore further cooperation.
UNI UEAR is co-funded by the European Union and coordinated by Argentina’s National Interuniversity Council (CIN).
