Theme: Unleashing the Power of Emerging Technologies for Socioeconomic Development

ZCICT 2026 seeks to explore the critical intersection of human expertise and machine intelligence. In an era defined by rapid digital transformation, the synergy between human creativity and algorithmic precision has become a societal necessity. As the context of developing economies is considered, where digital divides often persist, it is imperative to develop both technological and human capacity to deploy solutions that are contextually appropriate. Ultimately, this ensures that innovation respects local cultures while solving regional challenges.

This conference serves as a forum for researchers, innovators and industry leaders to discuss how human-machine synergy can drive innovation, accelerate industrialisation, foster inclusion and promote socio-economic development. We therefore invite full papers and research in progress that delve into theoretical foundations, practical applications and ethical implications across various areas.
