Edita Gimzauskien: I have to close it. Good afternoon for everyone. I’m really pleased to be part of such a distinctive event, EuroDIG and Baltic Domain Days, and to be one of the welcome speakers here this afternoon. Here I am representing Konus University of Technology and technology, I think, is the key word in this community. And my task is to send the warmest greetings from our KTU community, from our top management team, and our rector in particular. But from my side, let me start with a citation of Her Excellency, Secretary General of Commonwealth Nation Patricia Scotland. Last year, she was participating in Berkeley Innovation Forum. She gave a keynote speech, and she said that electricity and connectivity is a human right. But having said that, I think it’s really important to mention that we have the other side of that right, which means security and resilience. And looking at the title of this event, I think the most important keyword here is dialogue. It’s dialogue, bringing together different stakeholders, looking for the common language for discussions, moving towards bottom-up decisions and policy making. And they went through your website, and I think the most important keyword here is openness, transparency, diversity, which are features for success. Because as far as I know, in this event, we have 570 representatives from different countries, from different institutions, on-site or online, with a diversity of topics and with a diversity of experience. And I think that that really matters. So keep going on building the community, looking for common language for decisions for the resilient and safe, secure society. Enjoy Vilnius, and enjoy the event. Thank you.
