The North Korea Freedom Tech Summit is a one-day, closed-door exploration of how technology, information and power interact in the world’s most repressive state, and how targeted innovation, expertise, and capital can dramatically accelerate positive change.
Despite being the most closed country in the world, North Korea is not static. Smuggled devices and content, the introduction of new technologies, and creative adaptations by ordinary North Koreans have quietly eroded the regime’s monopoly on information. These shifts open up the most effective opportunities we have to increase freedom and pressure for change in North Korea.
This gathering is designed not as a conference, but as a working conversation – intimate, candid, and focused on actual outcomes.
The event is hosted by Liberty in North Korea (LiNK), an international organization with more than 20 years of experience on this issue. LiNK has helped more than 1,400 North Korean refugees and their children escape and resettle in South Korea and the United States, supported their resettlement and leadership development, and worked with North Korean defectors and engineers to build innovative solutions that expand access to information inside the country.
