Many economies utilize the NRI to design their digital strategies, connecting Technology with People, Governance, and Impact.

For the 2020 NRI – launch planned for late October 2020 – NRI is working on content (written and multimedia) based on interviews with Ministers, C level executives, and thought leaders.  The interview with Mrs. Arakelyan will be one the interviews to enrich the discussion around the following topics:

  • Does every organization need to be digitally transformed to stay competitive/survive? Similarly, how COVID has affected the need for digital transformation
  • What leadership/culture is needed to ensure digital transformation does not exacerbate the global digital divide?
  • What is the role of reskilling, upskilling, lifelong learning in becoming a future-ready firm/government/society? How urgently should firm leaders across industries be reskilling themselves and their staff? How does a crisis – like COVID – impact the need for reskilling?
  • How can we make sure that digital transformation remains human-centric and ethical while also providing firms/governments/economies with a competitive advantage?
