EdTech at GITEX Europe 2025: Cross-sector presence and strategic awareness
GITEX Europe 2025, one of the continent’s major technology and innovation exhibitions, convened thousands of stakeholders working across AI, cybersecurity, digital infrastructure, and emerging technologies.
The European EdTech Alliance attended the event to follow developments in policy and innovation relevant to the future of education and digital ecosystems in Europe.
Several sessions explored themes highly relevant to the EdTech sector, including algorithmic transparency, data governance, and the role of digital infrastructure in supporting equitable access to technology.
EEA Community Manager Antonia Goëtte-Ortiz followed sessions such as a roundtable on AI and cybersecurity in the EU, where participants discussed regulatory frameworks, ethical considerations, and strategies for building trustworthy digital systems.
Engagement in events like GITEX supports the EEA’s ongoing effort to monitor digital trends, understand how education is considered in wider policy contexts, and identify emerging opportunities for collaboration across sectors.
Maintaining this broader perspective helps ensure that EdTech remains aligned with Europe’s evolving digital agenda and that the needs of educators and learners are not left out of the conversation.
