Still interesting that this is a suprise. A country with decades of systemic policies to leverage tech and to become the tech leader of the world will actually then also benefit from it.

Form follows function applies to #foresight too How organizations structure their foresight activities determines how effectively they anticipate change and drive innovation. Check out the blog from my @vtt.fi colleagues @mattipihlaj.bsky.social and Pauli Komonen

Met President Jimmy Carter in Feb of 2017 while a Fulbright scholar. Still remember his talk, focusing on what binds us together. Inspiring talk that still resonates. By the way, #Carter was a tech visionary — pioneered data automation in government and installed solar panels on the White House.
