ITU Digital World 2021

ITU Digital World is the leading UN tech event for government, industry and SMEs. Connect, explore what’s driving digital transformation, share knowledge and ideas.

More details on the virtual exhibition organized by our co-host, the Government of Viet Nam, will will be available soon.
