The GDI 2024 is the next evolution of the much-quoted Global Connectivity Index and offers insights into how digitalization fuels economic growth and sustainability. With 42 key indicators, it paints a vivid picture of how nations are transforming through digital connectivity, green energy, and robust policy ecosystems.

Adopters such as Spain, India and Malaysia, rapidly expanding their digital prowess.
Starters such as Vietnam, Argentina and Kenya, laying the groundwork for a connected and intelligent future.
