Context: CIO World Now• Despite a fragile global economy, in 2012 Q4, Canada’s ICT

sector created 1,086,000 jobs and contributed 5% (or $68.35 billion) to Canada’s total GDP of $1,288 billion.

• · Mobile & cloud services will have a widespread impact on all sectors of the economy from healthcare to finance, and where much of the innovations will take place in the next 3 years.

• · Strengthening Canada’s place in the global digital economy will require up-skilling all of Canada’s workforce with advanced ICT skills.

• · Consumer appetite for mobility is rampant demonstrated by 64% of 18-34 year olds owning smartphones, and 24% of households having a tablet. Fast pace adoption is paving the way to new forms of content consumption, communications, education, manufacturing and health services.

The Reward?

• Become part of a $1.2-trillion opportunity

• “Use ultra-high-speed networks to keep our jobs…the only way we can maintain a middle class”– Thomas Friedman

• Create a place where people can make decisions on where to shop, where to eat, where to live, where to invest, get education, based on iPhone/iPad…Internet access is how they are doing it, and they’re not going to move to somewhere they can’t network.

“The critical questions for America today have to be how we deploy more ultra-high-speed networks and applications to invent more high-value-added services and manufactured goods and how we educate more workers to do these jobs — the only way we can have a middle class.”

-- Thomas Friedman, author, The World is Flat
