Angola’s largest international technology forum, ANGOTIC 2023, took place on 12-14 June after a two-year hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The event promoted debate around current, global, and future issues in information and communication technologies between government entities, and showcased innovations, as well as new trends in the sector.

The Angolan government organised the ANGOTIC 2023 conference, an International Forum of Information and Communication Technologies of Angola, in collaboration with the Ministry of Telecommunications, Information Technologies, and Social Communication.

The conference was attended by top-level government officials João Lourenço, the President of Angola, Maria Oliveria, the Minister of Telecommunications, Information Technologies, and Social Communications, along with the Secretary of State for Telecommunications and Information Technologies of Angola, Zimbabwe, and the Governor of Luanda. In addition, there were Ministers, including the Ministers of Science and Technology from Zambia and the Deputy Minister of Namibia.
