Every country will be digital
summary
Claim: digitization adds roughly $19 trillion to the global economy and can lift national GDP by 1–3% annually. Practical steps cited: scale networks from ~15 billion to 500 billion devices within 15 years, deliver 10–15 Mbps broadband to every Indian home at ~$2.50/month, and retrain workers — a program in France trains 200,000 people with 70% finding jobs within six months. Security risk is real (Ukraine grid attack cited) so an end-to-end architecture is required.
