About Event

Before the Giga Global Connectivity Forum (GCF) officially begins, Giga and the Geneva Chamber of Commerce (CCIG) invite Geneva-based business leaders to a closed-door exchange with Giga’s international community of innovators.

This 60-minute gathering is designed to foster meaningful connections between Geneva’s economic ecosystem and Giga’s global network of partners—including representatives from governments, international organizations, and the private sector.

No speeches—just an open, forward-looking conversation to spark new ideas, explore synergies, and build bridges between sectors.

Participants will then be invited to take part in Giga's GCF Welcome Reception (details below).


Purpose of the Session

  • Facilitate dialogue between Geneva’s private sector, diplomats, and international innovators on digital development.

  • Highlight Geneva’s potential as a global hub for trusted innovation and digital public infrastructure.

  • Spark new collaborations around connectivity, GovTech, and investment in inclusive digital ecosystems.
