This roundtable will bring to the Clermont Innovation Week 2025 a sampler of discussions originating from the global South and the global North. Starting from India, which aims at engaging local, national and international actors around this emerging new paradigm. The event is designed as an accessible conversation open to the general public, aimed at spreading the awareness about the promise, the reality and the implications of DPI as a new building block of our states, economies and societies.
The event will focus on the following questions:
- What does Digital Public Infrastructure look like? What justifies the use of this new term, after decades of debates on digitalization?
- What do we know about the socio-economic impacts of DPI, based on the experience of countries in the global South where it is spreading rapidly?
- What does DPI and its promise mean to different actors in our society, including the private sector, government, and civil society, in Europe?
The roundtable will engage a selected group of speakers, and leave plenty of time for questions and answers with the audience.
