… bring together key stakeholders from the public, private, and civil society sectors, including:
Countries: Countries that are seeking best-in-class approaches to digitization.
Bilateral and multilateral institutions: Institutions that support country governments in their digitization efforts.
Open-source digital public good providers: Providers of scalable digital solutions that can be used by countries to implement DPI.
Private sector companies: Companies with the expertise and capacity to help governments implement digital solutions at a population scale.
Civil society actors: Actors who are working to ensure that DPI is implemented in a way that is inclusive and protects the rights of all citizens.
Global DPI thought leaders: Experts on DPI who can provide valuable insights and guidance to countries on their DPI implementation journeys.
Domain-focused actors: Actors who are working to implement DPI solutions in specific sectors, such as education, healthcare, and agriculture.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is pushing governments to adopt the new global system for digital cash and ID that is backed by the World Economic Forum (WEF).
Gates and his foundation are doubling down on support for s digital public infrastructure (DPI).
DPI supports both digital IDs and payments and is backed by the WEF, the European Union (EU), and the United Nations (UN).
Gates is now pressuring governments around the world to begin incorporating DPI as the globalist groups push for payments and IDs to switch to a fully digital system on a global level.
The billionaire laid out his vision for global DPI in a new blog post.
The Silicon Valley oligarch is once again attempting to establish his reputation as a visionary on these matters.
Gates praised several third-world “developing countries” for allowing DPI to be tested on their citizens.
He revealed that the system has already been “trialed for the rest of the world” in India, Kenya, Brazil, and Togo.
One of the major criticisms leveled at digital IDs and payments is that they will lead to “enhanced,” digital government surveillance, and subsequent disenfranchisement of people.
Many have also raised concerns about the rush to usher in the technology.
Globalists have been pushing for DPI to be rolled out globally for large-scale adoption by 2030, ostensibly to fight “climate change.”
However, Gates does not share these concerns about the technology and is heavily pushing for DPI to be rolled out for the general public.
According to Gates, citizens should not be concerned about government surveillance because “a properly designed” DPI will in fact “enhance” privacy.
Gates also touches on what he says are the benefits of using Modular Open-Source Identity Platform (MOSIP).
MOSIP is a global digital ID tool backed by the Gates Foundation.
However, MOSIP is yet another point of contention from the privacy standpoint.
But MOSIP featured as a key participant during the recent Global DPI Summit 2024 held in Egypt.
At the event, those behind MOSIP, as well as the World Bank, the UN’s development agency UNDP, and the globalist Tony Blair Institute all took part.
The event provided another opportunity for these organizations to push for global adoption of DPI by 2030.
In addition, the organizations pledged to work on accelerating this process.
MOSIP demonstrated its identity platform at the summit.
At the same time, it stressed that the goal of digital ID and payments is to improve accessibility of identification, “particularly for developing nations.”
The platform is already in use in Ethiopia, Morocco, and Sri Lanka.
Meanwhile, the World Bank announced that it is about to launch its own global Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) program.
