In other words, Regions and local authorities are:
Necessary (it won’t work otherwise)
Quite conveniently positioned (global dual shift in terms of competence)
to deliver and implement the eInclusion agenda
BUT
“eInclusion” requires some serious explanation
“eInclusion” is, at first, often seen as an add-on cost
“eInclusion” has to fight its way through other policies
“eInclusion” needs PPP, and then some more!
“eInclusion” needs some serious governance model
“eInclusion” needs some serious networking
This won‘t be enough !
Al Gore's next act: Planet-saving VC
The recovering politician is teaming with a legendary venture capitalist and bigtime moneyman to make over the $6 trillion global energy business. He has decided to join his old pal John Doerr as an active, hands-on partner at Kleiner Perkins, Silicon Valley's preeminent venture firm.
A Fortune exclusive
Sustainable development,
food for thought?
Regions, an opportunity for eInclusion ! Right governance level
Contact with citizens / communities at risk
Maturing SWAT “attitude”
But eInclusion needs some catalyst that will
Make it more visible
Provide a mid to long term incentive environment
Make it “interoperable” with mainstream Regional Development
Introducing Regional Operational Programmes (ROP‘s)
ERDF criteria are explicitly Lisbon earmarked
Regions use the ERDF exercise as a template for their development
Chances are, there are “Riga seeds” in many ROP’s, especially those which have an explicit (ICT) eAxis
An example: the Aquitaine ROP
