ASEAN is increasingly becoming a vital economic force in Asia and a driver of global growth with a young, abundant workforce. Simultaneously, the region is witnessing significant productivity improvement in sectors such as manufacturing, retail, telecommunications and transportation.
Japan, like Finland, compared to USA and China has been seen as a bit latecomer in AI. One reason is that Japan has for decades been a top hardware-oriented industrial country which is producing mainly material objects. But today Japanese government is moving rapidly towards AI.
The presentation is a summary presentation from a study Situational Awareness Solutions which collects together use cases for situational awareness capabilities and prioritizes these in context of user perception and readiness, availability and accessibility of technology, ease and likelihood of adoption, as well as regulations and competing substitutes. Finally it analyzes the relevance of assessed use cases to United States, Germany and Japan. The application areas discussed cover, amongst other, ecology and environment, disaster management, logistics and transport as well as critical infrastructure management.
The Hong Kong government supports smart city operations and smart lamp post related actions. Smart lamp posts together with 5G can encompass various industries and thus can offer opportunities also for Finnish companies. Hong Kong aims to become a “world class smart city”. In ”Hong Kong Smart City Blueprint” smart lamp posts are mentioned as one action point and 50 smart lamp posts should be in use by the summer of 2019. The figure is set to rise to 400, and during 2019, a tender will likely be opened for the remaining 350 smart lamp posts. Smart lamp posts can serve several different functions and these are currently experimented in Science Park and the Smart City Pilot Area.

Bangladesh’s hi-tech industry is gaming forward on the back of steady economic indicators that signal rising per capita income, a surging young-consumer market indicative of future demand for tech products and services, and favorable policies that paved the ground for local and international players to explore the market. The emerging startup ecosystem has also been playing an instrumental role in channeling FDIs to industries like FinTech, Logistics, and Mobility since 2016. While the ongoing government initiatives in building capacities to sustain investment are portraying a positive future, over-supply of low-cost labor remains one of the major growth drivers for the hi-tech industry.
China is the second-largest source of “unicorns” in the world. We expect most China unicorns to come from the Auto, FinTech, Internet, Healthcare and Tech Hard-ware sectors.

Digital exclusion as a hindrance to the emergence of the information society:...Przegląd Politologiczny
There is no doubt, that digital transformation (knowledge-based transformation) has
emerged as the crucial megatrend in modern civilization. Artificial intelligence (AI), machines and
autonomous vehicles, the Internet of Things (IoT), financial technology (Fin/Tech), smart investing
and the analysis and processing of big data are the most recent manifestations of this trend, but not
the only ones. All of these phenomena have led to the emergence and continuing development of the
so-called ‘Information Society’ (IS), which refers to a new type of social organization that is clearly
distinct from the earlier forms of society. In this new society, information and knowledge play an
essential role in facilitating the Knowledge-Based Economy (KBE), where information is collected,
transmitted and processed in a faster and more effective manner, and can subsequently be used to
foster accelerated economic growth. Unfortunately, the problem of digital exclusion still occurs, also
in Poland. The author in the conclusion comes to opinion that people who are digitally excluded find
it much more difficult to overcome psychological rather than technical barriers to having access to
the Internet and learning basic computer skills. This situation calls for urgent improvement. In the
modern information society, a lack of basic knowledge about computers translates into partial or total
digital illiteracy and makes it difficult to perform a range of everyday tasks. It is therefore essential
in Poland to prevent digital exclusion. People who do not use the Internet are socially and professionally limited, or virtually handicapped, which results in quantifiable economic losses. This translates to lower creativity and innovativeness and reduced revenue of state budget, and impedes the
competitiveness of the economy and the development of a post-modern, post-industrial social model.
The main research goal is to show the causes of the phenomenon of digital exclusion in Poland and
ways to counteract it. In the course of the research, the most frequently used method was causal and
effect analysis as well as institutional and legal analysis. Elements of the decision-making, historical,
comparative and statistical methods were also used.

The capacity of countries and their institutions, public services, and corporate and business communities to successfully absorb new initiatives and integrate the changes needed for digital transformation will depend on their level of digital maturity. Targeted models or ‘readiness’ tools and rubrics support governments and organizations in assessing their digital maturity level according to pre-defined parameters, dimensions or indicators.
Russia seeks to build a powerfull IT Ecosystem [EN].pdfSnarky Security
The scandalous article is simply overflowing with intrigue, jealousy and envy. How could you even try to create your own digital world, free from the clutches of these annoying Western technologies and services. The whole article talks about how unpleasant it is for Western countries to see that Russia is reaping the benefits of this IT ecosystem. They have achieved digital sovereignty, expanded their information management capabilities, and even increased their resilience to economic sanctions. Their e-government and payment systems are superior to some Western countries, which leads to increased efficiency of public services and financial transactions.
Therefore, the author notes that it is simply unfair that Russia has managed to use its IT ecosystem in the interests of various industries within the country, such as e-commerce, financial services, telecommunications, media and entertainment, education, and healthcare.

A recent Future Watch study on consumer trends in South Korea explores and analyzes key consumer trends that are shaping South Korean society and how these trends are likely to evolve over the next three to five years. The study is echoing future consumer trends not only in Asia but also in Europe. It is now clear that mobile and online shopping will become the main retail channel, and technologies like virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), artificial intelligence (AI) and big data are changing the retail landscape.
Healthcare as an industry is transforming. The concept of wellbeing is increasing in importance. Living environments are evolving, including smart homes, assisted living and robotics. Technologies and innovations are having major impacts to individual’s life. Individuals are taking more control and recognizing also their responsibility.
Business Finland and Future Watch commissioned a study on the landscape of developments that will impact the delivery of Health & Wellbeing, to better understand the anticipated transformations, impacts and opportunities to support its strategy for ensuring Finland is well positioned to take advantage of such trends and to help drive better decision making for all stakeholders in Finland.

Japan is the second-largest retail market globally. For decades Japanese consumer’s preferences and cultural trends have been influential trend setting phenomenona. To understand how global consumer trends are transforming, it is important to look Japanese consumers behavior and attitudes towards consuming. Today we see behavior shifting. The change of Japanese consumers is not only about what people in Tokyo buy, but also how and what they think when they make decisions for purchases.
Future Watch report and analysis of consumer trends and lifestyles in Japan was done in collaboration with Euromonitor International’s Tokyo office researchers.
A new policy on energy transition was commenced in Taiwan to phase out nuclear power and to introduce substantial power generation capacity from renewable sources by 2025. This transition of energy source and structure represents not only great challenges for Taiwan but also immense business opportunities for industrial developed countries.
A recent Future Watch study identifies and describes future consumer trends in Mainland China and Hong Kong over the next 2-10 years. These trends are likely to impact the products and services these consumers buy and the marketing they respond to. It aims to identify significant trends that are specific to China’s unique market.
Central to the forecasting is identifying 12 consumer roles that represent key China trends. Each role has an accompanying case study which explains how brands are starting /planning to tap into these nascent trends.
Both India's Space and Cyber Defence areas contain gaps to keep up with global development. India’s space defence program is guided by policies to counter the capabilities of China and Pakistan. While India has made long strides with cost effective mission to Mars and a successfully launching record number of satellites, there are several gaps in its space defence. While in the space communication arena, at present, India has extremely limited space-based COMINT (Communications Intelligence) capabilities. Cyber security of satellite communications is another arena for potential collaboration between countries. Also, to achieve complete control of satellite communications & intelligence C4ISR, India needs to have a constellation of satellites in the space with extreme communication technology at disposal. In the Space Situational Awareness area India needs radar-independent tracking methods such as lasers, coherent infrared sensors and space systems with a sole purpose of tracking the functional capabilities of suspected/rogue satellites with military connect.
In cyber-security area, according to Gartner, cyber-security in India is growing to be a $1.5 bn market by 2019 & forecasted to grow over 19% during 2018-2023. Average spend on cyber security is currently at ~3% compared to a global average of 10-15% of the IT budget. India would need a trained pool of million professionals in cyber-security by 2025.
India is expected to be one of the key markets where future growth will emerge. The growth will be primarily driven by a favourable population composition and increasing disposable incomes. India is expected to reach USD 2374 GDP per capita by 2023. Consumer spending will increase in food, housing, transport and communication as well as consumer durables. Some interesting future sectors will benefit, such as sports and electric vehicles. The attached material takes a look also in such consumer related trends as cashless payments, data privacy and AI and technology in consumer businesses.
Future Watch report: According to a research report released by the Indian government, India is facing its ‘worst’ water crisis in history and that demand for potable water will outstrip supply by 2030 if steps are not taken. Twenty-one cities, including Delhi, Bengaluru, Chennai and Hyderabad will run out of groundwater by 2020, affecting 100 million people, the study noted. Combined with industrial water pollution, shrinking rivers and inefficient urban water management system, there will be a 6% loss in the country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by 2050.
China is already the world’s second largest ICT market place. By 2020 the market is estimated to reach USD 850 billion. For the Chinese government, digital, ICT an AI market is not only seen as a business, but it is increasingly seen through national security and social stability lenses. Furthermore, policies to ensure security often appear to do so at the expense of foreign companies. The Cyber Security Law from 2017 has increasingly tightened the operational landscape for foreign companies in China.
Biomimetics refers to the imitation of nature e.g. when creating new technical solutions. The solutions may for example improve the properties of products or create totally new kinds of products and materials. Background idea is that there is no better or more efficient solution or system than the ones that have been optimized in the nature. Examples of current solutions inspired by biomimetics include Velcro tape, development of non-reflecting, surfaces and self-healing materials. In nature materials can simultaneously be strong, resilient, and light, and they can have for example hydrophobic properties. These properties and the new possibilities they create are important in utilizing renewable materials and by-products in today’s bio and circular economy.
The Natural Resources Centre Finland surveyed the Finnish research landscape in biomimetics and the related commercial possibilities. Europe, the USA and Japan are leading the research and commercialization of biomimetic solutions. The international co-operation forums in Europe and in the USA are summarized in the survey. The report can be downloaded at www.marketopportunities.fi
Future Watch signal: Trade war between the US and China has triggered the foreign companies in China to rethink their China strategies. Other than multinational companies and those without multi-product lines, are impacted the most, sometimes to the extend that the new situation threatens their business survival. Some companies fear that their businesses might enter into a complete standstill because of a small, low-value component that falls under the sanctions somewhere in their supply chain. Sourcing managers are already busy finding alternate sources in countries where the new US import tariffs don’t apply – at least at this moment.

4 Russia Goes Digital – 2018
5. Factors hindering digital transformation process:
- Cybersecurity and digital piracy
Expected growth in the number of cyberattacks and leaks of confidential data. By 2021, annual economic damage from cyberattacks
worldwide will reach $6Tn, three times more than in 2015 . By the end of 2018, about 66% of IoT networks will be subject to cyberattacks.
Accelerated “digital piracy” negatively affects digital transformation. Since May 1st, 2015, Roscomnadzor (Federal telecom and media
supervisor) has received over 3.3 thousand complaints to block 29 thousand websites that violate copyrights.
- Digital literacy
Low level of digital literacy and large gap in digital competencies between different population groups. In 2016 a little more than 50%
Russians possessed basic digital skills. In the same time digital literacy is on the positive trend and increased by 6.3% lately.
- Shortage in skilled workforce
Russia experiences a lack of highly skilled ICT specialists: in 2015–2016 the number of ICT specialists on the market grew only by 3.6%,
while annual demand grew by 25%.
- Digital technology adoption by business
Penetration level of digital technologies in Russian private sector is remarkably low. In particular in manufacturing industry where 55% of
companies invest 1% or less of the revenue in the digitalization and only 6% of companies invest more than 5%.
- Media control
The state’s excessive control over mass media: while state owns only about 10% of registered media in numbers, these are the largest media
holdings that reach to most of the national audience. Recent attempts of Roscomnadzor to block Telegram messenger (de-facto a popular
media platform) is an example how state attempts to establish control over digital media sector
-International sanctions against Russia. Restrictions in supply of modern foreign technologies and solutions are a sensitive barrier for
digitalization for a number of Russian industries, especially manufacturing, oil&gas and energy
5 Russia Goes Digital – 2018
7. Challenges:
Potential for further Russian economy growth through localization and import
substitution policies is exhausted. The government sees labor productivity
improvement as a single major growth factor for the economy in near future.
GDP per person employed in Russia is $52.000/year on average, which is 30-50% less
than in OECD countries. For selected industries: $213.000/y in extraction of raw
materials, $45.000 in manufacturing, $38.000 in construction and $33.000 in
agriculture.
Economy Digitalization is considered as the solution to overcome this gap and is
announced as top national priority
The share of digital economy in Russia grew to 2.1% in 2016, but still is 3-4 times

24. DIGITAL ENERGY: TRENDS & DRIVERS ”Energy intensity of Russian
GDP is still about 2,5 times
higher than in OECD countries.
GDP energy intensity reduced
by 11% from 2007 to 2016. The
target is set to reduce it by
further 40% to 2020.”
MAIN DRIVERS
Russia has large room for improvement in GDP energy intensity (49th place in the world).
Digitalization can provide significant impact on energy savings. Collecting energy data
through industrial IoT solutions (sensors, etc), analyzing it and building predictive
models helps in detection of energy losses and ideating potential solutions.
Digitalization of electrical energy and creation of “Internet of energy” for electricity producers, transporters
and consumer drives energy industry digitalization as a whole. ASI Energy.net association provides
foresights for the industry and supports pilot projects (first in smart grid), for example in S.Petersbug and Ufa region.
Growing number of renewable energy production sites (supported by the state) increases competition and diversity and accelerates the shift
toward digital energy industry.
TRENDS
1) Wide application of digital technologies: IIoT (sensors), Big data analytics, Digital twins (power plants and networks), AI (load and peak
prediction) and Blockchain (market regulation and transparency) in both energy production and distribution.
2) Digital electrical energy pilots will become the role model for the whole industry digitalization
3) Energy systems architecture and management principles will change from hierarchical to distributed and flexible structures, allowing easy
introduction of independent producers and flexible adaptation to consumer and market needs.
4) Energy consumption model will be changed to allow more flexible regulation in order to be more sustainable and address peak consumption
issues.
5) From “take it or leave it” to consumer-centric distribution with transparent and flexible tariffs and open market with equal access rights.
6) Renewable energy production (solar, wind, thermal) turns from exotic to widespread in Russia.

26. DIGITAL ENERGY: CASE ROSSETI
ROSSETI is one of the world’s largest power grid operators with 2.3M kilometers of electric lines and 500K transformator sub-
stations under management. The state owns 88% of the company, which employs over 200 thousand people in all Russia.
Just recently, ROSSETI announced strategic development priorities to 2030, including the following goals: market capitalization
growth to 20Bn euro (from current 2,2 Bn), decreasing energy losses from 9,05% to 6,5% of transmitted power, shortening time
required for new customer connection to the grid by 30%, CAPEX and OPEX shall also decrease by 30% by 2030.
To accomplish these goals, digital development program was proposed that will require investments estimated at 17Bn euro for
the whole period of the program (up to 2030). ROSSETI calculated project NPV equal to euro 1Bn by 2030 (at 11% discount rate)
and IRR equal to 13%.
The core of the program is switch form centralized hierarchical model of energy supply (generators vs consumers) to horizontal
model with distributed generation and energy storage (smart grid). ROSSETI than plans to build an IoT ecosystem on top of the
smart grid reaching every customer to be able to collect process and transmit any signals or commands, thus ensuring very
flexible, responsive and agile netwrok management.
Investments will be required in a number of IoT solutuions including smart meters, operated remotely to reduce losses and protect
from unathorized consumption, telemechanical solutions for sub-stations to allow fully remote control and management.
Cybersecurity is also an important integrap part of the project to protect from user data leakages and hacker attacks. Big data
analytics and predictive models of energy consumption will provide the basics for sustainable business development and growth.
26 Russia Goes Digital – 2018
27. Russia Goes Digital
Conclusions:
1. As Russian state controls over 70% of the economy, it naturally plays the main role in promotion of digital
transformation in state-controlled corporations. “Digital economy” national program has been developed for the purpose
and it is the major driver for digital transformation in such corporations.
2. While most of the state-controlled companies are pushed by the government, the majority of forerunners in digitalization
are private companies, pro-actively developing digitalization strategies and products based on modern digital
technologies. The most notable ones, setting the role model are: Yandex (Digital transport, e-health, e-commerce),
Sberbank (maybe the only exception of a state-controlled digital leader; Fintech and e-health), Telecom operators (MTS,
Megafon, Beeline, Tele2: in 5G, e-health, fintech), Zyfra (IIoT, Big Data and AI for industry), Mail.Ru (e-commerce, e-
health), Tinkoff (fintech).
3. Digitalization status of different industries vary significantly. B2C market - focused service industries are the first ones
to undergo digital disruption, as it is a matter of survival one very competitive markets and met with immediate positive
response from individual clients. This can also be justified by the number of startups in each industry. The most
digitalized are: banking, telecom and retail industries, followed by transport which is in active digitalization phase right
now. Digital disruption of healthcare in Russia has just began and will accelerate over the next 3-5 years. Digitalization of
energy industry is yet in its early (planning) days, but we may expect drastic changes there within the next 5 years.
28. Russia Goes Digital 28
Conclusions (continued):
4. Setting up digital committees and appointing Chief Digital (Transformation) Officer seems to be the first step in dealing
with digitalization trend for most of the companies and may serve as a good indicator. As follows from the recently
published survey* the amount of large companies with CDO appointed grew from 5% in 2017 to 18% now (300 companies
interviewed). Other 28% of companies are actively search for a CDO to hire, while 29% indicated no need in CDO and 25% do
not know what it is.
5. Currently 35% of Russian companies (from 300 surveyed) already have a digital transformation strategy and 26% are
planning to develop it in near future.
6. There is a trend in demand for educating, consulting and outsourcing of “digitalization” for the top management of
businesses in Russia. Two research&education centers on digitalization were formed in 2018 in MSU and Skolkovo School of
Business with the purpose to educate and provide strategic consulting to business and public authorities.
7. The state will continue to stimulate appointment of CDO’s and digital strategy development development, in particular in
state-controlled corporation. Fourteen such companies have been already selected for a pilot that will be analyzed in 2019.
The list includes Aeroflot, Gazprom neft, Alrosa, Kamaz, Russian Railways, Rosatom, Rostelecom, Russian Post and others.
