Digital Development Plan – A national priority
28.05.2009
There is a host of other countries who are competing to be the world leader in the ‘smart space’. This is a global race to outpace the competition in the digital economy. Ireland must prioritise building our nation’s digital capabilities, and we need to do it now if we are to stay in the game.
Nations across the planet are in a race to be in the vanguard of the global digital economy – it’s a matter of economic life or death. Countries are investing now in digital infrastructure and services because they are vital to economic growth, recovery and job creation.
The digital economy underpins our whole economy and its competitiveness. Investment in digital infrastructure and services must take precedence over everything else. It is the bedrock on which all other sectors depend; it is the key to our recovery and future economic success.
If we prioritise digital, we will create the growth to fund other development. If we fail to make this a national imperative then all other future revenue will be adversely affected.
