The **ZTE Global Congress** will co-locate with the GSMA M360 ASEAN event in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, following a strategic agreement. This joint event will take place in September 2026. Specifically, the ZTE event is scheduled for September 8 to 9, while the GSMA event will run from September 9 to 10.

Event Schedule and Location

The collaboration was finalized during the MWC26 Shanghai exhibition, where ZTE signed the strategic partnership agreement. ZTE is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange under the code 0763.HK and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange under 000063.SZ.

Meanwhile, the discussions will focus on future network evolution and regional digital economy growth.

Four Key Pillars of the ZTE Global Congress

The fifteenth edition of the **ZTE Global Congress** operates under the theme of transitioning from connectivity to digital value. To achieve this, the organizers structured the agenda into four distinct sessions. First, the “Vision” session explores the digital economy goals for the Southeast Asian region over the next five years.

Second, the “Scale” session highlights smart infrastructure capabilities. This segment covers network artificial intelligence, data centers, cloud computing, and energy solutions. Third, the “Value” session features real-world case studies presented directly by telecom operators. Finally, the “Projects” session focuses on industry collaboration and ecosystem development. Notably, these sessions will address how the industry can collectively shape the next era of value creation.

Interactive Sessions and Demonstrations

During the two-day event, attendees can participate in keynote speeches and panel discussions. In addition, the schedule includes product launches, exhibition tours, and robotic demonstrations. These activities aim to connect government officials, operators, and analysts. Furthermore, the event serves as a major forum for the global technology community, attracting media representatives from various countries.

Future Outlook for Digital Value
