Welcome to the fourth Industrial Revolution!
I'm Sebastian Alex recording from a place that makes the very foundation of
Indonesia's digital startup ecosystem
On the third Industrial Revolution we observe the automation of machines.
In this fourth Industrial revolution we see how these automated machines are
interconnected through a cyber system through the use of IoT (Internet of Things)
or cloud technologies.
This revolution creates a larger online community
where people are much more interconnected than before
and fast information exchange can actually take place between various countries
or even continents.
This is what we call a disruption.
Unlike Innovation that
actually means doing the same thing only much more efficient and better,
disruption is all about transforming things;
making the old way of doing things completely obsolete.
Changing the whole system.
Well, take Google as an example.
People used to get information through piles and piles of books and
encyclopedias the library, now they're just one click away
Through your phone, through your laptops
using Google Search, Google Books, or even Google Scholar.
Completely changing the way we do things
According to David Eaves a lecturer, and also the chair
Digital Transformation in Government Program of Harvard Kennedy School
this disruption shifts citizens' expectations.
People expect governments to keep up with the speed and ease of the cyber system
To better deliver and also cater to the society.
According to the World Economic Forum's Digital Policy Playbook 2017 entitled
Approaches to National Digital Governance,
There are four main points in National Digital Governance
Which are Ensuring Innovation in Digital Governance & Access
Ensuring Growth in Digital Economy
Digital Democracy to Develop a Smart Society and Accessible Public Information & Services
And lastly, Regulations to Protect this Digital Infrastructures, Businesses, and Rights.
However, to create such a system it's not easy
one has to think about it sustainability. This is not just about riding on a global trend or tides
This process might take awhile and a lot of work.
It took Silicon Valley almost 60 years to be where they are right now.
Silicon Valley itself has 8 main pillars to to ensure their ecosystem from going.
first supporting government and corporations towards innovators
investors or venture capitalists
universities and research centers of course
Incubators for these innovations and
Supportive Legal climate for these intellectual property to be registered
and of course lastly, the innovators themselves.
the governments should also plan this thoroughly with a three tiered process.
First is strategy. (They should) know the objective and the risk
And of course the existing regulation towards it and then create
policies that can support the strategy from happening.
And lastly create a standard for the execution of the strategy and policy.
Well, we're back here with my questions for this topic;
Can the Indonesian government actually build such a melting pot of innovation here in Indonesia?
Is the digital climate in Indonesia supportive enough for this?
what are the strategies that the
government made towards this digital age?
In Google we use the OKR
or "Objective and Key Results"
Thus, what are the OKRs or key deliverable for this strategy?
and lastly,
how do we maintain the standard?
Well, what is the standard that the government use?
This is where Aris Huang's paper
Mapping the Digital Governance Ecosystem in Indonesia
Could be an interesting read.
But well, I guess that's all from me today

questions or thoughts down below
Thank you very much for watching.
