4th Industrial Revolution - 4IR and all the emerging technologies that are part of this concept are disrupting the world as we know it, particularly affecting nations and businesses that need to adapt quickly to avoid being left behind.
Dinis Guarda and Dr. Rais Hussin, two leading global voices in strategy and research, analyse how future digital tech can be used to developing nations in the publication of a new book titled “4IR: AI, Blockchain, Fintech - Reinventing a Nation.”
The book offers keen insight into the present and future of the 4IR and how the associated variety of evolving technologies can and will have a significant impact on economies, societies and individual people. The book challenges nations to prepare for 4IR, asking them to focus on the needs of their society leading to a future of sustainable, mindful economic growth on a global playing field, and how these, if rightly utilized, might contribute to a better world where nations are seen as collaborators rather than adversaries.
“4IR – Reinventing a Nation” assembles an array of expert thought leaders who all contributed research to the new book and is a testament to the impressive and expansive global network that Dinis Guarda has built during his 25-year career. The list of contributors includes a foreword by Eric Van der Kleij - the founder of London Tech City and Level 39, Emmanuel Daniel, author and founder of Asian Banker, Guenther Dobrauz Saldapenna, author and Director at PWC, Yoshiyuki Yamamoto, advisor to the UN, Efi Pylarinou, world influencer in Fintech, Thomas Power, author and global authority in Social media, innovation and tech, and also Maria Fonseca, Anca Petre, Dr Margarita Peredaryenko, Michael DaCosta Babb, Hernaldo Turrillo and Javed Khattak.
The book explains, highlights and reflects on the crucial technologies of AI, Blockchain, Fintech, and IoT that are at the core of the 4th Industrial Revolution. “4IR: Reinventing a Nation” discusses the risks and threats and explores how we can best harness the opportunities, strengths, and potential of these technology tools for the future advancement of countries and its citizens. And it further examines how smart cities can experiment with prototyping and fostering scalability around 4IR techs, while at the same time assessing its associated risks.
