Building on a Strong Legacy: Key Infrastructure Projects
eDruk’s journey in innovation is rooted in landmark projects that laid the groundwork for Bhutan’s digital ecosystem. These initiatives not only enhanced connectivity but also paved the way for data-intensive technologies like AI and ML.
Government Intranet Revamp (2016): In collaboration with New Edge Technologies and Bharti Airtel, eDruk secured a contract award on July 25, 2016, for supplying goods and services to revamp Bhutan’s Government Intranet. This project involved installation, configuration, and commissioning, including free WiFi implementations and additional agency connections. Signed on July 29, 2016, it ensured secure, high-speed networks critical for data flow in AI and IoT applications.
Druk Research & Education Network (DrukREN) (2016): eDruk, partnering with Evertop Technology (Int’l) Ltd., amended a contract on September 29, 2016, for the supply, installation, and commissioning of equipment for DrukREN—a high-speed network connecting educational and research institutions. This infrastructure supports collaborative AI/ML research and IoT-enabled smart campuses across Bhutan.
DrukREN Expansion (2020): On June 17, 2020, eDruk received a supply and work order from the Department of IT & Telecom (DITT) to expand DrukREN, further strengthening Bhutan’s digital backbone for emerging technologies.
