ICITED 2015 — University of Calabar

ICITED 2013 — IIM Ahmedabad

Affiliated with the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad (IIMA), this edition positioned IITEDA as a genuinely cross-continental convening body for technology and development research.

Co-hosted with the University of West Scotland, this edition drew researchers from across Europe and Africa to examine digital infrastructure gaps and policy responses.

Conference arrangements confirmed with a partner university. Submissions open to researchers working on technology policy and economic development in the Global South.

Held in collaboration with the University of Calabar, Nigeria. Peer-reviewed papers addressed connectivity, digital literacy, and economic policy across West Africa.

Here's the ITEDA history laid out as a timeline, spanning from the first ICITED conferences in 2008 through to the founding of ITEDA itself. Each milestone is color-coded by type — conferences in purple, the IGI publication in teal, international partnerships in coral, and the founding in amber.

Institutional Anchors Across Three Continents

Each co-host brings regional expertise and local research networks, ensuring ICITED's proceedings remain grounded in the economies they study, not abstracted from them.

Partner institutions include the University of Calabar, University of West Scotland, and IIM Ahmedabad — each contributing peer-review capacity and contextual authority.

A committed home for rigorous regional scholarship
