G20 Sherpa Amitabh Kant G20 Sherpa Amitabh Kant on Friday said it is a great opportunity to look at sunrise sectors like green hydrogen development and mobile phone manufacturing with India holding the presidency of the G20 grouping. "The stars are aligned in favour of India," he said while referring to India’s G20 presidency while delivering the third annual lecture of Public Affairs Forum of India. With the G20 summit scheduled to take place in September in Delhi, Kant said India holds an advantage in terms of demographics, digitalisation, decarbonisation and deglobalisation to be a major power and become a voice of the Global South. Referring to the various crises being faced by the world at a time when India has assumed presidency of G20, Kant said: "To my mind, every crisis has a huge opportunity and G20 in the past has demonstrated the ability to deliver in times of adversity." "India’s focus would be on highlighting the need to address the climate crisis, progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals, global debt, geopolitical tensions and the ensuing food and energy crisis," he pointed out. Kant further said that there will be a renewed push for green development and climate […]

Digital transformation can be a complicated and intimidating process. Company leaders should learn the six digital transformation stages so they know what to expect for their organization and can better plan for the inevitable disruption. The stages progress from business as usual , in which a company is at the beginning of its digital transformation, to innovative and adaptive , when the organization has finished its transformation and has embraced this change. Each step comes with its own challenges, which can include vendors resisting change and employees potentially objecting to the change, and the amount of time that each step takes will vary between companies. Here are the six digital transformation stages and what each involves. 1. Business as usual During the business as usual stage, the company operates normally. No effort is expended to look to the future and investigate how a digital transformation could improve the business. Company leaders do not look to industry and consumer trends to determine whether implementing new digital software could help the organization grow and become more efficient. To kick-start the journey, the company may need to experience losses like sales declines, high turnover, or higher-than-average operational costs, which will convince leaders […]

As higher education moves into the second wave of Dx — aligning digital efforts with institutional success — here are five key trends to watch. "Is College Worth It?" It’s the headline that keeps popping up everywhere in higher education and national headlines. That’s because more than half of adults don’t think the economic benefits of a college degree outweigh the cost. With enrollment declining , and growing pressure to demonstrate return on investment, more institutions are rising to the challenge, making serious efforts to measure and explain their value. Next year and beyond, tech capabilities on campus will have a big role to play in determining ROI for students, as well as aiding colleges and universities in their institutional effectiveness endeavors. By leveraging new digital technologies and data-driven analytics, colleges are slowly but surely equipping themselves with the data and metrics they need to prove their value to stakeholders. Or, at minimum, they have begun looking into the tools and processes they will need moving forward to remain competitive and financially sustainable. These tools and processes include digital technology adoption to enhance and improve: affordability and access; student success outcomes; digital credentials (CLR); upgrades in finance and operations; […]

For financial institutions, focusing on digital transformation has become extremely important. The shift to digitization accelerated during the pandemic when many people weren’t stepping foot into physical bank locations, keeping most of their interactions with banks virtual. PaymentsJournal recently sat with Whitney Stewart Russell , President of Digital Solutions at Fiserv, and Steve Murphy , Director of Commercial Payments at Mercator Advisory Group to discuss Fiserv’s recent study and the key findings from it, as well as the advantages that financial institutions may have, and why trust is crucial to their success. Digital Behavior Shifts Financial Institutions have historically enjoyed a high degree of consumer trust, but during the pandemic more consumers were drawn to the convenience that fintechs provided when it came to digital banking. “It’s interesting,” said Russell. “One stat that I often share with customers as we’re talking about this change is from a study. Millennials were asked who they would feel most comfortable banking with, and it actually swung to fintechs and big tech because of the convenience those organizations can provide.” “Maybe I don’t trust them as much, but I’m willing to migrate to them because of the convenience factor,” she said. Now the […]

The Russian invasion of Ukraine is still far from over, but it is already clear that Ukraine has defended its independence and won the right to become a fully fledged member of the democratic world. This trajectory was further underlined in summer 2022 when Ukraine received official EU candidate nation status. Ukraine’s future prosperity is not just a matter of ending the war and moving toward membership of the European Union, however. Ahead lies the complex reconstruction of the country’s entire economy and national infrastructure. In order for this to succeed, there can be no return to pre-war conditions. Instead, Ukraine has a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reinvent itself as one of the most modern nations on the planet. Thanks to the unprecedented support of Ukraine’s international partners, today’s ambitious visions for a new Ukrainian economy are entirely feasible. This will in all likelihood be a green economy at the cutting edge of the digital revolution. President Zelenskyy had already set Ukraine on the road to a digital future long before the horrors of Russia’s full-scale invasion. In the early days of his presidency in spring 2019, Zelenskyy identified digitalization as a national priority and vowed to create “a country […]

Crowdsource Innovation Digitalization is fundamental to facing the world’s biggest challenges, which depend on connectivity and digital skills, yet, connectivity inequality still exists. Among other key factors, digitalization can increase national resilience by bridging the digital divide for better economic growth and social inclusion. A paradigm shift in connectivity is taking place, evident through the rapid scaling of 5G, forecasted to reach 5 billion by the end of 2028, according to the latest Ericsson Mobility Report . Ericsson was founded on the premise that communication is a basic human need. Yet, today’s biggest inequality may be between the connected and unconnected. While we need to harness the power of digitalization to face a series of fundamental challenges – economic slowdowns, energy crises and a changing climate – connectivity is a foundation for digitalization, as are the skills to use digital tools. Around the world, mobile networks play a crucial role in providing connectivity, with more than 6 billion subscribers on mobile networks today – more than the number of toothbrushes. Let’s look at five areas in which digitalization can encourage the resilience we’ll need in 2023. Have you read? 1. Improved networks and coverage Connectivity is a cornerstone for […]
