• Develop clear, evidence-based arguments to support the proposed incentives, referencing successful models from comparable markets.

3.Collaboration and Coordination:

• Work closely with PITA’s Advocacy Officer, Board of Directors, and task force members and sub-sector committees to ensure the refined position paper aligns with PITA’s strategic goals.
• Engage in regular consultations with key stakeholders, including industry representatives and governmental bodies such as the Ministry of National Economy, the Ministry of Telecommunications and Information Technology, IPIEA, and others to gather insights and secure buy-in for the proposed incentive package.
• Conduct interviews, focus group discussions, and surveys as necessary to collect primary data.

4.Incentive Package Formulation and Finalization:
