Futures Forum 2025: A strong step in PNG’s digital journey!

Last Thursday at the Hilton Port Moresby, the Business Council of PNG in collaboration with PNG Department of ICT brought together leaders from government, business, and tech to take stock of where Papua New Guinea is on its digital journey—and where we go next. It was an energizing day of practical, forward-looking conversations.

Setting the tone for the event, Vice-President (International) of the Business Council of Papua New Guinea Mr. Kenneth Imako delivered opening remarks which preceded the official Futures Forum 2025 Address delivered by Mr. Richard Nicholls, Group Chief Information Officer for Bank South Pacific Financial Group Limited.

Agenda highlights spanned a Technology SitRep on GoPNG 2.0 and the global tech outlook; sessions on Gov2.0 and change management; essential shared services like Servis Pas and Servis Pay; core fintech and digital infrastructure; “new crimes” and cybersecurity; and the emerging opportunities and guardrails around critical minerals, drones, and micro data centers.

Thank you to our speakers, moderators, partners, and everyone who joined us for the discussion and connections that make progress possible. More key outcomes and next steps to be shared soon—keep an eye on the Business Council of PNG site for more updates bcpng.org.pg.

We would like to extend our thanks to the sponsors of this year's Futures Forum event - BSP Financial Group, SBS Tech, BPC Banking Technologies, and Duco Consultancy - for making this event possible.

What is the Futures Forum?

Papua New Guinea is at a critical point in its digital journey, and the Futures Forum is where some of the most important conversations are about to happen.

Set for August 14 at Hilton Hotel Port Moresby, the 7th Futures Forum will bring together leaders, thinkers, and practitioners to unpack what the future holds for PNG — especially as we face rapid technological changes globally.

From artificial intelligence and fintech to cybersecurity and national policy, this isn’t just another conference — it’s a platform to help us shape direction.

Stay tuned for more updates as we unpack what to expect over the coming days.
