28 February 2023 4YFN

Full stands and aisles, informal meetings on stools, sofas and beanbags, and plenty of content on sectors as heterogeneous as e-commerce, the marine economy or health, but all sharing an interest in technology. The second day of 4YFN 2023 was buzzing with energy, so we recap some of the highlights below.
