Emstret Holdings at the EU–PNG Business Forum Championing Connectivity, Inclusion & the Voice of Local Businesses.
We are delighted to have our CEO represent Emstret Holdings on a panel alongside esteemed leaders driving connectivity and digital transformation across Papua New Guinea and the Pacific.Reflecting on the session, our role was clear: To bring the lived realities of our people and our MSMEs to the table. While it was an honour to sit among industry leaders, our CEO’s priority was to speak for the entrepreneurs, farmers, market mamas, youth innovators, and small businesses who rely on connectivity to participate in today’s digital economy. At Emstret, our journey mirrors the journey of our nation building, learning, adapting, and pushing forward so that no one is left behind.
Transformation Must Start From the Roots For digital transformation to be meaningful, it must begin where our people are. We need an enabling ecosystem that gives every entrepreneur from remote villages to urban hubs the tools, access, and opportunities to thrive.True connectivity is not just infrastructure. It is market access, equal opportunity, and a digital future that belongs to all Papua New Guineans, not just a privileged few. Our message was simple and firm: Digital transformation cannot be top‑down. It must be built from the roots up.
We extend our sincere appreciation to the EU Delegation for the opportunity to contribute to this important dialogue at the EU–PNG Business Forum.Our team remains fully committed to delivering solutions that connect the unconnected, break down silos, and build a collaborative ecosystem that works for everyone.Together, we can create a WIN‑WIN digital future for PNG.
