Global leaders from government, industry, academia, and civil society will gather in Geneva from 7 to 11 July for the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS)+20 High-Level Event 2025. The WSIS Forum coordinates action on using digital technologies for development.

Hosted by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the Swiss Confederation, the event is co-organized with UNESCO, UNDP, UNCTAD, and over 40 UN partners. It will be held at the Palexpo center alongside the AI for Good Global Summit 2025.

This year’s event will review progress, explore challenges like AI, and help shape the WSIS agenda beyond 2025, ahead of a formal UN General Assembly review in September. It will highlight emerging tech trends and foster global cooperation on digital transformation.
