India has been at the forefront, especially in the wake of the G20 India Presidency, where countries unanimously agreed to a common definition of Digital Public Infrastructure.

India's becoming the voice of the global south has brought a call for action to represent India's capabilities and further international cooperation, leveraging DPI.
To further India's DPI solutions and continue conversations, Primus Partners, in association with iSPIRT, held a Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) Roundtable, that brought together key stakeholders such as senior bureaucrats, diplomats, policymakers, industry leaders and thought leaders. The Roundtable explored how India's DPI is becoming a global conversation of inclusive and scalable infrastructure and how it can serve as a blueprint for other nations to harness technology for improving citizens' lives.
The Event sought to explore India's leadership in advancing DPI and its role in driving socio-economic transformation. The Keynote Address was delivered by Amitabh Kant, G20 Sherpa. Kant highlighted that, "India has made a remarkable leap to become the voice of the Global South in Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) and achieving in 9 years what would have taken 50 years. This sentiment was echoed during India's G20 Presidency, where countries reached a common consensus that DPIs are essential for equitable development and to improve the lives of citizens, especially in the global south."
