Overview GovMedia Summit 2026

As governments across Asia accelerate their digital transformation, GovMedia presents the GovMedia Summit 2026 - Philippines, a premier platform to explore how innovation, AI, and data-driven strategies are shaping resilient, citizen-centric governance.

Under the theme “Future-Proof Governance: AI, Data, and Digital Foundations for a Resilient, Citizen-Centric Philippines,” the summit will bring together senior government officials, policy leaders, and technology partners to discuss how public institutions can leverage AI, data analytics, and digital infrastructure to enhance efficiency, transparency, and resilience in a rapidly evolving digital age.

This year’s agenda will focus on key areas, including integrated e-government platforms, interoperability and cyber resilience, AI-powered decision-making, sustainable public service models, and the evolution of smart cities driving inclusive growth.
