Thank you to all organisations which could contribute to the Global Innovation Forum
The Global Innovation Forum 2022 convened a wide range of actors from around the world. In total we had registrants from 59 different countries, speakers from 17 different nations and over 25 contributing organizations adding to the event.
We would like to send a big thank you to all organizations involved throughout the process and hope for your continued partnership in this innovation journey.
We believe the Global Innovation Forum provides a platform for such organizations international, national and local to come together, learn from each other and realize future potential.
Together we can tackle those large tough questions, inspire innovative change agents and provide room for future good in the humanitarian space.
We strive for a continued partnership with participating organizations and encourage interested parties to reach out to these organizations.
If you are interested in joining as a partnering organization in 2023 please reach out to us at the DRC Programme Innovation and Business Engagement department.
