At Itana, we are deliberate in building a community of Itans who will inspire and support one another. We take a community driven approach in providing digital services and in designing our dream city.
“We created the Global Digital Residency Program, a first step in accessing a plethora of our digital services and becoming a physical resident in Itana.
We are an international and diverse group of ambitious technologists and artists who are actively building a future they believe in.
