CIBA was a proud supporter of the CYPRUS IT FORUM where 300+ IT businessmen, investors and government officials got together to discuss the micro- and macro developments in the IT industry.
This year the speakers were the CEO’s from the Cyprus largest international IT companies (Nexters Global, Servers.com, Haxus AI Incubator) and world famous guest speakers (Google, Yandex, Hollywood).

Cyprus IT Forum’s mission is to develop the island’s progressive community and bring together like-minded people. To become the ground where the foreign IT community can network with the local business and grow together. For that CITF has approached all main local business associations to ask for the assistance in this mission.
