Background and Purpose

DX2025 is convened as part of the dissemination activities of a multi-institutional Erasmus+ project involving 11 universities across Europe and Southeast Asia. The project is aimed at strengthening digital transformation capacity among higher education institutions in Lao PDR, Cambodia, and Malaysia.

The initiative responds to key challenges faced by partner institutions—namely limited digital infrastructure, evolving pedagogical demands, and the need for enhanced faculty readiness. Through collaborative development and capacity-building efforts, the project delivers several transformative outputs, including:

  • A comprehensive Digital Transformation Blueprint
  • Structured training programmes for academic and administrative staff
  • The establishment of Digital Learning Centres across partner institutions

DX2025 provides a strategic platform to showcase these achievements, share impactful practices, and promote cross-regional collaboration in digital transformation. The conference aims to inspire the adoption of innovative solutions, strengthen institutional resilience, and support workforce development across higher education ecosystems.
