ICTP 219: Exploring Dominica’s efforts to realise a digital economy, with Robert Tonge

The Commonwealth of Dominica, like many Caribbean countries, is giving more attention to developing its digital economy. However, unlike some countries, it has established a dedicated unit within the Government to focus on this area. Robert Tonge, the Coordinator of the Digital Economy of Dominica, joins us in this episode to discuss, among other things:  What Dominica envisages as its digital economy, and what it considers its priorities; How Dominica sees its digital economy complementing other parts of its national identity and traditional economy; How soon critical milestones, or inflexion points, in the country’s digital economy roadmap will be realised.     The episode, show notes and links to some of the things mentioned during the episode can be found on the ICT Pulse Podcast Page (www.ict-pulse.com/category/podcast/)    Enjoyed the episode?
