The Challenge In 2016, Estonia intended to introduce an extensive work ability reform, which would affect more than 100,000 people receiving disability benefits. The reform set out to achieve four major goals: Foster a more positive attitude in society towards Handle all of the people currently receiving 1 people with reduced work ability, which would 2 disability benefits on an individual basis and also have a positive effect on their self-image. determine their actual eligibility.

If more than 40 percent of adults in East Africa Public Disclosure Authorized pay their utility bills using a mobile phone, why can’t others around the world do the same? If 8 million entrepreneurs in China—one-third of them women—can use an e-commerce platform to export goods to 120 countries, why can’t entrepreneurs elsewhere achieve the same global reach? And if India can provide unique digital identifica- tion to 1 billion people in five years, and thereby reduce corruption by billions of dollars, why can’t other countries replicate its success? Indeed, what’s holding back countries from realizing the profound and transformational effects that digital technologies are supposed to deliver? Two main reasons.

  • Open Government Data and Value Creation
    OPEN GOVERNMENT DATA AND VALUE CREATION THE CASE OF NORTAL A/S ROSKILDE UNIVERSITY Business Studies, Internship Report Spring 2017 SUPERVISON Kirsten Mogensen AUTHOR Ninni Gustavsen / 49883 Illustration: toolinux.com Logo: Nortal.com ABSTRACT This research project takes the starting point in the Estonian ICT market, with a particular focus on Open Government Data and value creation in private businesses. With Nortal as a case, the problem is explored through a thematic analysis of an interview with Oleg Schvaikovsky, Member of Board at Nortal. The findings are that value creation from OGD from Nortal’s point of view happens due to the use of particularly transparency and efficiency mechanisms with a focus on the entire ecosystem and not just implementing the IT. In conclusion, Nortal focuses a lot on value creation from Open Government Data by considering the surroundings and the ecosystem in which the technology will be implemented. Nortal makes use of both transparency mechanisms and efficiency mechanisms to create a seamless society. The findings of this project have contributed knowledge of value creation from Open Government Data in private businesses to a small academic field in development.

StrategEast believes nations from the former Soviet Union share a heritage that has resulted in common obstacles to the formation of stable, efficient, market-oriented democracies. We hope to appeal to political, business and, academic leaders in post-Soviet countries and the West, helping them better understand one another, communicate across borders, and collaborate to support real change. Our work is focused on the 14 former Soviet states outside of Russia. This post-Soviet, non-Russia (PSNR) region includes: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan. StrategEast focuses on six key issue areas that are especially influential to the transition to Western political and economic systems: fighting corruption, implementing a Western code of business conduct within a post-Soviet business environment, modernizing infrastructure; promoting independent press and civil society, energy transparency, LEARN MORE AT OUR WEBSITE: and leadership impact. www.StrategEast.org StrategEast is a registered 501c3 based in the United States.

  • Estonia's Digital Transformation: Mission Mystique and the Hiding Hand
    Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose Estonia’s digital transformation: Mission mystique and the hiding hand Rainer Kattel Professor of Innovation and Public Governance Deputy Director, UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose Ines Mergel Professor of Public Administration, University of Konstanz, Department of Politics and Administration Working Paper IIPP WP 2018-09 September 2018 About the Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose The UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose (IIPP) aims to develop a new framework for creating, nurturing and evaluating public value in order to achieve economic growth that is more innovation-led, inclusive and sustainable. We intend this framework to inform the debate about the direction of economic growth and the use of mission-oriented policies to confront social and technological problems. Our work will feed into innovation and industrial policy, financial reform, institutional change, and sustainable development. A key pillar of IIPP's research is its understanding of markets as outcomes of the interactions between different actors. In this context, public policy should not be seen as simply fixing market failures but also as actively shaping and co-creating markets. Re-focusing and designing public organisations around mission-led, public purpose aims will help tackle the grand challenges facing the 21st century. IIPP is housed in The Bartlett, a leading Global Faculty of the Built Environment at UCL, with its radical thinking about space, design and sustainability.
