From the Editor
I am thrilled to introduce to you the 2023 March issue of our IT society newsletter, which maintains the online format that was launched last year. The transition to the digital version has been seamless, thanks to our productive collaboration with ÌÇÐÄlogo BITS in terms of content. Moreover, we have established a stable structure and publication schedule for future issues.
