Digital Public Infrastructure: The Key to 21st Century Innovation and Growth

Understanding and designing reliable digital public infrastructure (DPI) is key to ensuring governments meet their development goals, transforming the ways we connect and work, while also helping society weather major global challenges, like the COVID-19 pandemic. But what does dependable DPI look like? And how can policymakers use it to promote innovation in their countries?
India is a current global leader in developing DPI, using it to implement widespread adoption of digital payments, data-sharing infrastructures, and growing its e-commerce sector. These innovations have in turn bolstered domestic businesses and spurred entrepreneurship. If implemented correctly, DPI has the potential to catalyze innovation and unlock market bottlenecks in all regions of the world - but the conversation has to be broadened.
Join Carnegie for a discussion on the possibilities of DPI with Infosys founder, Nandan Nilekani, in conversation with Dan Baer.

Great, thank you.

Very insightful and well articulated! DPI’s are being implemented largely in the developing world, with stiff resistance to adopt in the west. Could be a leapfrog moment…

[@steamerSama]

That is because you need a certain amount of trust in a central entity to implement dpis, but trust in western institutions are eroding. We do not realise how ubiquitous dpis are yet. Covid came along and direct benefit transfer was done in the blink of an eye because of the massive data that allowed dpis to function. If it were the US, we could never imagine dpis to bear teeth for privacy concerns. Every technology has pros and cons, but with good safeguards tech like dpis could be a game changer

Funny thing, American Government invented it, then let private players monopolise it

[@banditonehundred]

Wow, there’s only like 25 people in the room.

[@banditonehundred]

Count how many times he says ‘ubiquitous’

[@amlan9120]

India is big on IT sector, even in outside of India so many Indian are in IT sector, which why they didnt need to sell the Idea of digital India. It is only US where they needs buzzword.
