Leveraging agentic AI to build smarter connectivity systems

From mapping school networks to forecasting infrastructure gaps, AI is transforming how we connect the unconnected. Giga—a bold initiative by UNICEF and ITU—is already using these tools with governments to build inclusive digital infrastructure for education.
This session explores how agentic AI—the combination of different AI agents to achieve more complex goals—can help solve real-world connectivity challenges. We’ll examine open-source tools, frontier innovations, and the role of public-private collaboration in scaling solutions that work.
