In the latest GX Talks, a dialogue series created and hosted by the Prime Minister’s Office of the UAE, Ott Vatter, Managing Director of e-Residency Programme, Republic of Estonia, shares the backstory to Estonia’s pioneering digital transformation.
In this talk, Vatter shares details about Estonia’s digital society. Estonia has achieved many firsts – it was the first country to launch e-Residency, a government-issued digital identity, which Vatter describes as a “governmental startup”. This was controversial, he said, as it is usually businesses who are perceived to be the drivers of innovation, not governments.
