International Telecommunication and Information Society Day

The Digital Transformation Council is honored to invite you on May 17, 2021, 10:00 a.m., to the virtual conference dedicated to the International Day of Telecommunications and the Information Society.

Accelerating the digital transformation in Romania. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the urgency of accelerating the digital transformation, by boosting the objectives of the ITU’s Connect 2030 Agenda, without leaving anyone behind.

The digital transformation determines the improvement of the experience of each citizen and the change of the way the business is done. It increases the quality of life and ensures well-being by pursuing the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. The factors driving these changes range from increasingly diverse technologies to new business models, with the goal of delivering personalized services, encouraging the reduction of paper consumption and cash payments.
All countries should have a national digital agenda, policy, strategy, legislation or policy statement that identifies and lists their national goals in relation to digital transformation and how to act to achieve it. National policies can help establish a clear vision of national infrastructure and connectivity. They can set principles and priorities that help define mechanisms to expand connectivity, while building online protection and safeguards for the most vulnerable members of society.

Message from Mr. Houlin Zhao, ITU Secretary General
“The information society has emerged as one of the main lines of defense against the COVID-19. In this decisive year, ITU will use World Telecommunication and Information Society Day to unite the world in pursuit of digital transformation in every area of ​​business and in all aspects of life. We would like to hear your success stories, but also about your challenges and lessons learned.”
