Book Introductions
The most important question a nation has to answer is if it creates the right narrative and
value for its citizens.
Most would agree that the best value creation is about growing the economy in a
sustainable way, managing a balanced and inclusive society, making sure there are
enough jobs for its citizens, prosperity, health and education, and guiding the country
towards increased social wellbeing and stability.
This is complicated in the present world. We live in a world that is changing at a fast pace, a
pace never seen so far in human history.
We now live in a period of technology data-driven 4.0 industrial revolution - 4IR - a world
which is more interconnected and affected by technological innovation than ever before in
history.

More than ever, what shapes and destroys worlds… are stories. As
we now enter into the second decade of the 21st century, the
biggest challenge nations are facing is how to design a new,
meaningful, and positive story for their societies. How can a
country take control of their destiny on the verge of the massive
wave of transformation being prompted by the 4IR?
The 4IR is here to stay and there is no turning back.

and overcome barriers to 4IR
Blockchain AI Fintech IoT adoption? Conclusion
Due to its outreach, 4IR technologies raise all kinds of concerns, but actually, with
proper guidance, these can be used to create a better life for all, including new and
more meaningful jobs, reskilling of the workforce, better health and education, and
smarter and greener cities. What is more, it can contribute to a more sustainable
and circular economy, and ultimately, a future society where more well-being is
possible to all citizens; regardless of age, ethnicity, and class. Countries then are in
urgent need of developing a powerful narrative around adopting technology not as
a fashion, but as a default setting that enables them to create a more inclusive and
caring society for all.

40. 1. Set clear goals: national efforts between all institutions, government organisations, universities,
schools, financial institutions, and bigger projects such as Tech city initiatives must not be
technology-centred but citizen-society-centred.
2. Build the foundation and ecosystem: tech city ecosystems benefit from a sum of players and all
social-economic players need to be involved - open between government (public services) and private
sector, using data to attract the best global talent and organisations and work as much as possible with
the local community.
3. Retain investments - invest in local and attract global: The implementation of initiatives should engage
local players, education and service providers to develop local tech city capabilities within the
ecosystem.
4. Education / reskilling attract and retain local and global talent: develop an ambitious program of
education that strengthens the Industry 4.0 required talent pool, with an emphasis to fill the gap in data
science and blockchain, AI, fintech foundational technologies that are transforming the world like never
before.
5. Define clusters that can match the country and social needs: build a program that focuses on the
short, middle, long term needs of the country and explores best ways to create jobs and relationships
between all social players from government, to universities and public-private sector in a local-global
context.
