Israel's Startup and VC Ecosystem
Israel has a highly developed startup and venture capital ecosystem, with Tel Aviv ranked as the second best startup ecosystem globally. In 2014, Israeli startups raised $3.4 billion in funding, had 688 venture capital deals closed, and 18 companies went public. Israel also excels in exiting startups, with $9.8 billion raised from companies that went public and $15 billion generated from mergers and acquisitions. Factors contributing to Israel's success include heavy investment in research and development, a culture of entrepreneurship, compulsory military service that provides leadership skills, and strong support from technology incubators and university technology transfer offices.
Digital Gateway: Clive Grinyer
Technology has the power to transform society by unlocking new capabilities and connecting cultures. However, 10 million people in the UK have never used the internet, including many disadvantaged groups. To ensure technology benefits all groups, designers must understand people's real needs and co-create solutions with users. Harnessing creativity through collaboration between technical and creative experts can help design digital services and experiences that engage citizens.

Singularity u 14 16th nov jn
The SingularityU NZ Summit brings together top experts on exponentially accelerating technologies with New Zealand and Australian leaders to help them compete in an exponentially changing world. Within 20 years, 47-81% of current jobs may be automated, including traditionally "safe" jobs, so understanding exponential technological growth and its effects is crucial. While technology poses threats, it also brings opportunities like an economy based on abundance rather than scarcity. The conference aims to discuss the strategic, policy, economic, and ethical implications of these changes as old rules no longer apply in an exponential world.

Digital banking in Canada
Digitalization, as we call it today, is sweeping across every aspect of our daily lives in all possible ways. The impact of digital technologies is prevalent in every spectrum of our lives and consequently the current era is also termed as the “digital age”. The process of digitalization started some five decades back with the advent of computing technologies and digital electronics. Today digitalization can be seen as a tool of transformation which extends beyond our lifestyle to the way we transact, interact and conduct business. Across all sectors, be this communication, media, healthcare, retail and manufacturing, we are increasingly seeing the use of digital technology. The landscape of this digital age is increasingly being driven by innovations in e-communications, e-commerce and ever-increasing deployment of the internet to create economies based on high technology, massive communication, knowledge creation and innovation. It is important to understand and appreciate the factors that are ushering in such changes and how these are impacting the modern-day business.

Future of Digital Natives
We live in the digital age where everything is touched and connected by technology. The invisibility of digital technology has produced a distinctively new generation defined by digital media the digital natives. Digital natives are people who have grown up using technology from early childhood. They are the new citizens of the digital world. It is difficult to predict the exact impact of the technologies on digital natives. However, emerging technologies are poised to transform digital natives shortly. Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Kirtikumar K. Patel | Sarhan M.

How your Museum can Win
The document discusses how museums can survive and succeed in the digital world. It argues that museums should not view digital strategies as separate, but should have an overall strategy that incorporates how modern audiences experience culture. A museum's mission statement, policies, staff, services, business model, communications, facilities, and culture all need to support this overall strategy and be relevant to how people engage with information today. By focusing on serving today's digital, mobile, and socially connected consumers and making the most of opportunities in the digital space, museums can remain great cultural institutions for current and future audiences.

604k Ought to be enough for anyone - by Dan Bowyer
This document discusses trends in technology and society from the 1980s to the present and into the future. It notes that computing power and internet access will continue to become cheaper, more reliable, and faster. Society is becoming hyperconnected through technology, which increases awareness and transparency. New businesses can create change efficiently from the ground up. However, it questions assumptions that the global economy can support infinite growth and that money, government, and debt are inherently problematic. It suggests Africa focus on renewable energy, local manufacturing, education exports, and technology to take advantage of opportunities and avoid mistakes made elsewhere. The key message is that the present represents a time of opportunity for Africa.

- The document discusses the early days of starting a telecommunications company called Yeigo, including taking the leap to start in 2005 and building a prototype while seeking funding.
- Key lessons learned include that you can't outsource your competitive advantage, innovation is iterative, and producing a demo shows commitment. Secrecy also cannot protect your idea if it can be easily copied.
