TechnoMag is preparing for the upcoming 2nd edition of the Tech Convergence Fora (TCF), scheduled for November 7, 2025, at The Venue. Themed “Reflect, Reprogram, and Re-align,” this year’s forum aims to build on the success of its inaugural event in 2024.

The 2025 TCF will concentrate on crucial areas like cybersecurity, data protection, artificial intelligence, digital financial services, and digital infrastructure, emphasizing the collaborative, innovative, and policy-driven approach highlighted in 2024.
Panel discussions will cover various topics, including Parliamentarians on ICT Policy, Tax, and Regulation, Cybersecurity, Data Protection & Legal Frameworks, Emerging Tech, AI & Virtual Reality, Starlink Distribution Opportunities, and Mobile Financial Services & Consumer Digital Rights.
