About Us
Since 2014, the World Internet Conference (WIC) Wuzhen Summit has been successfully held for several consecutive years. Every year, it brings together more than 1,000 representatives from government departments, international organizations and industry bodies worldwide, as well as executives from leading internet enterprises, top experts and scholars from around the world, in Wuzhen, East China's Zhejiang province, to share experiences in global internet development and discuss global internet governance.
The development of the digital age calls for the WIC to play a greater role in global internet development and governance. In recent years, the international community has also proposed to build the WIC into an international organization to better facilitate global internet development and governance. Against this background, the WIC Organization was formally established on July 12, 2022, with its headquarters in Beijing, China.
