About The Event
Participation in the summit is by invitation only
The stage is set for a ground breaking event that will ignite the spark of digital transformation and propel nations towards a brighter future. Welcome to the Global DPI Summit, where global visionaries and leaders converge to embrace the limitless possibilities of Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI).
Under the visionary leadership of India's Presidency, the G20 Digital Economy Working Group has identified DPI as a key priority area. DPI, with its profound impact on social, economic, digital, and sustainable development goals, has emerged as a game-changer for digital economy and its stakeholders. It has opened doors to unparalleled opportunities, fostered innovation, and empowered individuals and communities like never before.
While the foundational building blocks of DPI, such as Digital Identity, Digital Payments, and Data Exchanges, have been embraced by many, there is still a global quest for universal adoption of DPI. This journey signifies the diverse perspectives and collaborative spirit of nations working together for a common goal.
The Global DPI Summit arrives as a beacon of hope and progress, shining its light on the way forward. Its grand stage will be set in the enchanting city of Pune, Maharashtra, India place teeming with rich heritage and vibrant energy. Against this backdrop, the summit aims to bring together brilliant minds, creative thinkers, and passionate advocates of DPI from around the globe.
The summit seeks to ignite inspiration, propelling nations to embrace DPI as a catalyst for growth, inclusivity, and citizen’s welfare.
The objectives of this momentous gathering are manifold. It aims to:

Build a pragmatic understanding of DPI

Showcase the remarkable DPIs of G20 members and invited countries and their impact on the national and global digital economy

Deliberate on critical success factors with key stakeholders

Share the know-how and best practices of DPI
This is in alignment with the core theme of India’s G20 presidency viz. Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam- ‘One Earth, One Family, One Future’.
The summit will also have a Global DPI Exhibition which will showcase and demonstrate India Stack initiatives
such as UPI, Aadhaar, DigiLocker, UMANG, and many more.
