Why this summit
Bangladesh's ICT sector has become a critical driver of economic transformation - contributing to GDP, employment, and efficiency across manufacturing, finance, agriculture and services. But growth has outpaced policy, infrastructure readiness, and systemic integration.
Artificial Intelligence holds transformative potential for productivity and competitiveness - while introducing real challenges: job displacement, algorithmic bias, deepfakes, and digital sovereignty concerns tied to foreign cloud ecosystems.
The summit is a strategic platform to address both the opportunity and the risk of early-stage AI adoption - especially for SMEs - and to move from policy dialogue to practical, on-the-floor application.
