Presentation that I made for the Digital Counsel in charge of defining a plan for the Digital Economy in Wallonia, Belgium (March 27th 2015).
To embrace the digital economy, we need:
- More agile companies
- More agile workers
- More agile governments
KPIs that I suggested:
1- Number of interactions between startups and administration (the lower the better)
2- Number of local companies acquired (it will incentivize people to innovate "outside-of-the-box" and investors to invest in local startups)
3- Percentage of population who can understand English ("Think global, act local")
4- Number of independent workers ("Teach people how to find customers instead of how to find a job")
