Overview
ICT-As Summit Suriname is a conference which offers a platform for everyone in the ICT industry to come together to exchange ideas, explore new opportunities and foster new relationships both locally and abroad, between the public and private sectors altogether.
This summit is organized as one way of executing our mission of helping our members and Surinamese society achieve more with the optimal use of ICT based on development, growth and inclusion.
That is why the theme of this summit is:
“Digital development, growth and inclusion”
This theme is also part and parcel of our Suriname ICT Vision 2030 statement which is as follows: “A digitally enabled information society, empowered by the interconnected world, where innovative information and communication technologies enable and accelerate social, political, environmental, economic sustainable growth and inclusive development for and by every Surinamese”.
