About us
Quick links

The main purpose of our work is to provide the tools for an effective policy, legal and regulatory environment for the ICT sector.

We convene global and regional forums to discuss global trends in regulation for Sector Members and other national and international stakeholders, through organizing the Global Symposium for Regulators (GSR) as well as strategic dialogues on topical policy, legal, regulatory, as well as on economic and financial issues and market developments.
We provide data, research and analysis and tools to support our members in defining, elaborating, implementing and reviewing transparent, coherent and forward-looking strategies, policy, legal and regulatory frameworks as well as in moving towards evidence-based decision-making.
We provide knowledge exchange tools and platforms to enable inclusive dialogue and enhanced cooperation to help countries achieve a more inclusive information society and to raise national and regional awareness about the importance of an enabling environment.
We provide direct assistance to countries and regions on an enabling environment for smart connected societies.
