AB  - Globally, overall rates of HIV are on the decline; however, rates among gay men 
      and other men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender persons are increasing. 
      Meanwhile, there has been exponential growth in access to communication 
      technology over the last decade. More innovative prevention and care 
      technology-based programmes are needed to help address the growing numbers of MSM 
      and transgender persons living with HIV and those at risk for infection. To 
      address this need, a meeting was hosted by the U.S. Agency for International 
      Development (USAID) through the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief 
      (PEPFAR) and co-sponsored by amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research and the 
      National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). The meeting brought together 
      researchers, community implementers, advocates and federal partners to discuss 
      the current landscape of technology-based interventions for MSM and transgender 
      persons and to discuss key considerations. Presentations and discussions focused 
      on the research gaps, facilitators and barriers to programme implementation and 
      public-private partnerships. This article summarizes the meeting proceedings and 
      outlines key considerations for future work in this area.
