RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA, June 6, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As the global digital economy increasingly serves as an engine for economic and social progress, the Digital Cooperation Organization (DCO) has today reemphasized the necessity of fostering inclusive and sustainable digital development. The DCO believes its ambitious 4-Year Agenda remains the primary strategic cornerstone of delivering a golden era for the global digital economy.

Building on the momentum of the past four years that has seen the DCO establish itself and grow into the foremost multilateral organization for 16 Member States in their digital development, the 4-Year Agenda charts a bold course toward realizing the DCO’s 2028 Ambition to strengthen digital economic resilience and unlock social prosperity in Member States by driving transformative growth in collective digital maturity. It signals a shift from foundational growth to strategic acceleration, embedding cooperation at the heart of digital economic development and enabling Member States to leapfrog into the forefront of the global digital economy.

The 4-Year Agenda for Digital Resilience and Prosperity (2025–2028) is anchored on four visionary pillars that collectively reimagine how economies thrive in the digital era. These pillars are a call to action for governments, private sector and ecosystems to unlock transformative growth in the digital economy.
The Digital Enablers pillar will drive regulatory harmonization and ecosystem readiness by establishing unified policy frameworks and strengthening shared digital infrastructure. Digital Business & Innovation will catalyze high-growth digital sectors, nurture scalable enterprises, and build competitive innovation economies. Through Digital Corridors, the DCO will accelerate cross-border data flows, forge new trade routes, and mobilize a digitally empowered and mobile workforce. Lastly, Digital Society will champion inclusive digital access, promote equitable participation, and advance green, human-centered innovation.

These pillars are powered by DCO’s flagship initiatives, including the Digital Economy Navigator (DEN), a flagship benchmarking tool guiding national and regional digital transformation efforts; the Digital Prosperity Summit, a global forum amplifying thought leadership, collaboration, and recognition of digital excellence; and the Digital Economy Impact Fund (DEIF), a strategic financing mechanism to unlock investments in high-impact digital projects and close development gaps.

Commenting on the 4-Year Agenda, Secretary-General of the DCO Deemah AlYahya said, “This 4 Year Agenda is not just a roadmap, it is a bold commitment to shaping a future where digital prosperity is a right, not a privilege. Building on our transformative achievements, we are accelerating our efforts to harmonize policies, ignite innovation, and embed inclusivity at the core of the digital economy. This strategy is designed to empower every nation, every business, and every individual to thrive in the digital era. The momentum we’ve created is only the beginning; the real impact lies ahead”.

The 4-Year Agenda comes as the DCO’s Secretary-General Deemah AlYahya was reappointed by the DCO Council, extending her stewardship of the multilateral organization for another 4-year term. Since its inception in November 2020, the DCO has achieved remarkable milestones that have set the foundations for an acceleration in global digital cooperation as a result.

The DCO is setting out an ambitious pathway under the 4-Year Agenda which will accelerate a transformative period of digital cooperation through to 2028. It is a reaffirmation of the DCO’s mission to foster a fair and sustainable digital economy where every country, business, and individual can thrive.
