Hi,
I wonder if anyone could help with the translation of this vice-rectorate's office:VICERRECTORADO DE EMPRESA, TERRITORIO Y TRANSFORMACIÓN DIGITAL.
It's from a guide for new researchers at a university to explain the organisation of the governing board. I'm not sure how to translate 'territorio' in the name of the vice-rector's office.
Many thanks in advance.

This is a translation based on the "official" title of the Vice-Chancellor as it appears on the UMA website so Asker may want to use it, despite the fact that this appears to very bad translation - quite surprising for a university.
If I were to "correct" it, I would go for "Office of the Vice-Chancellor for Business, the Region and the Digital Economy".

A territorian is an inhabitant of northern territory.
