Global DPI Summit
Bali, Indonesia
March 22-25, 2027

The Global DPI Summit will return in 2027 with its first edition in Asia, bringing government leaders, development organizations, technology providers and civil society together in Bali, Indonesia from March 22–25.

Co-hosted by Co-Develop, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the UN Office for Digital and Emerging Technologies (ODET), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the World Bank Group and Indonesia’s Committee for the Acceleration of Government Digital Transformation (KPTDP), the summit will focus on the growing role of digital public infrastructure (DPI) in enabling inclusive digital transformation worldwide.

The event will explore advances in foundational systems such as digital identity, digital payments and data exchange, alongside topics including sustainable DPI financing, universal safeguards, interoperability and last-mile inclusion. Indonesia’s selection as host reflects the country’s expanding role in the global DPI ecosystem and its ongoing deployment of initiatives including Digital ID, data exchange infrastructure and digital payment platforms such as BI-FAST and QRIS.

Building on the rapid growth of previous editions, the 2027 Global DPI Summit is expected to bring together participants from more than 100 countries to share implementation experiences, showcase operational deployments and discuss the future of trusted, inclusive and sustainable digital public infrastructure.
