Digital@UNGA
Since its launch in 2023, Digital@UNGA has evolved into a leading multistakeholder platform at the United Nations General Assembly, catalyzing global dialogue, partnerships, innovation, and action to advance an inclusive digital future.
Digital@UNGA 2026 will take place on 21 September from 5:00 – 8:00 PM US EST at the Delegates Dining Room of the United Nations Headquarters in New York, on the eve of the General Debate of the 81st Session of the United Nations General Assembly. The program will be highly dynamic and engaging, bringing together world leaders, innovators, technology pioneers, youth voices, investors, and changemakers for an evening of high-level dialogue, commitments, partnerships, digital innovation showcases, major announcements, awards, and celebrations — complemented by extensive networking opportunities.
This year’s edition aims to be bigger, bolder, and more action-oriented than ever before, with a strong focus on:
- Digital solutions advancing sustainable development;
- Artificial Intelligence, quantum, space, and emerging technologies for good;
- Partnerships accelerating inclusive digital transformation; and
- The Digital @UNGA Awards, recognizing outstanding leadership and innovation in shaping inclusive digital futures.
Complementing the Digital@UNGA anchor event on 21 September, and building on the success of Digital@UNGA2025, the Digital@UNGA Affiliate Program will once again bring together a diverse range of partner-led events and engagements across New York City throughout UNGA week, further amplifying dialogue, collaboration, and visibility around digital cooperation and innovation for sustainable development.
Stay tuned as preparations advance!
