             There are a lot of Ideas
The “Why” is Most Important
Not Everyone Wants Digital
Privacy is Often Used as a Reason To Not To
Risk is Real But Not a Reason Not To
You’ll have to grind it out
And roll your own
It’s a Fine Balance
And Really Hard Work
The Clay Layer Is Real
Government as platform - early days
