We are convinced about introducing our whistleblowing software in Spain through Barcelona because the European Directive 2019/1937 will require to update the current legislation in Spain in this field", says Sandro Marsiglia, DigitalPA Country Manager in Barcelona. Therefore, a large number of companies and administrations will have to have a system to trace and monitor the process of anonymous complaints by their own staff and the stakeholders with whom they operate.
