Technology Salon Information

The Technology Salon™ is an intimate, informal, and in person, discussion between information and communication technology experts and international development professionals. We focus on technology’s impact on donor-sponsored technical assistance delivery, and private enterprise driven economic development, facilitated by technology. Our meetings are lively conversations, not boring presentations – PowerPoint is banned and attendance is capped at 30 people. We expect frank participation with ideas, opinions, and predictions that will move the sector from talk to action. Through our four key attributes, we’ve grown to be a global network of professionals who share a common passion for expanding the role of ICT in empowering development. Member conveners organize Salons around the world to increase the discussion and dissemination of information and communication technology’s role in expanding solutions to long-standing international development challenges.
