SUSTAINABLE NATIONS: THE CATALYST OF SMART WORLD

We are living in the time of big challenges and opportunities. The world as the whole of human civilization, as the socio-economic-political system of

humanity, with its global ecological system, is rapidly changing. It’s becoming smaller, more unstable, and more endangered. Everything is fluid and

fraught with volatility and uncertainty, the world population, world economy, world politics, world ecology, world religion, world network, world climate,

thus the world future.

Comprising 195 independent sovereign states, 60 dependent areas and five disputed territories, the world is going through the lasting global crisis,

when decisive changes are impending, when the whole world system is looking for a radical transformation in all the key spheres, sectors, parts and

systems.

The present world is a world of unsustainable growth, extreme inequality, overwhelming poverty, ill -gotten wealth. Its wealth is idiosyncratically

distributed between the few richest haves and the poor have-nots, with almost half going to the richest one percent and the other half to the remaining

99 percent, creating huge disparities in wealth and income, power and rights.

In 2013, the total global wealth amounted to $240.8 trillion. Share of wealth for the bottom half of the population was 0.71 percent, while the richest

one percent had 46 percent (amounting to $110 trillion).

The world's 85 wealthiest were worth a collective $1.7 trillion, while the same amount was owned by half of the world's poorest people, a total of roughly

3.5 billion.

Such extreme inequality has been ‘impacting social stability within countries and threatening security on a global scale’, according to the World

Economic Forum.

It poses a major risk to human progress, to building inclusive political and economic systems increasing social tensions and the risk of social unrest and

societal breakdown.

The Smart Nation Strategy is emerging in the quest for a New World of sustainable growth and smart economic, technological and socio-cultural

development and intelligent governance for international communities and states, regions and cities, and global virtual communities, as well as for

enterprises, industries and economies, local, regional and global.

Smart Nations are Intelligent Nations, Eco Regions and Smart Districts, Intelligent Cities and Green Communities, Smart People and Smart Life,

Sustainable Land and Environment, Sustainable Infrastructure and Smart Industry, Smart Grids and Eco Buildings, Intelligent ICT and Eco Mobility, Big

Science and Future Technology, Internet of Everything and Smart Web, Smart Financing and Intelligent Banking, Smart Health and Education, Smart

Security and Safety, Smart Government, Regulations and Standards.

Smart Nation is to became the engine and key driver of an instrumented, interconnected, intelligent , inclusive and innovative world of the future, 5i-

WHY BECOME A SMART NATION: INTELLIGENT GLOBAL BRANDING

In today's world, every country/city must compete with every other country/city for the world's investors, talent, cultural exchange, tourists, businesses, media profile and international events, cultural, political, economic, and scientific.

In today’s world, every nation, intentionally or unintentionally, has its brand, brand name, trade name, marque, national branding, core message, logo, claim, the way the nation is perceived (brand perception) and imaged globally and locally, by the world (global image formation) as well as its subjects and nationals.

Intelligent National Branding is instrumental in attracting foreign direct investment, tourism, enhancing geo political influence, global national image, facilitating trade and private-sector competitiveness, supporting for exports, and creating internal pride.

Up to now, countries and states are building the national brand and global image, employing the standard approaches and old public diplomacy, antique public relations and aggressive advertising and propaganda, including the United States, Canada, France, United Kingdom, Japan, China, South Korea, and some Western European countries

Innovation is a major driving force in global growth and

development. The Economist magazine defines it as “new

products, business processes, or organic changes that

create wealth or social welfare,” or simply, “the fresh

thinking that creates value.”

INTEGRATED SMART NATION STRATEGY: IMPLEMENTATION PLANNING

Innovative forms of smart nation policies and regulations are

to enable implementation and roll-out of smart nations.

Smart governance concepts are required to coordinate and

integrate smart nation stakeholders – national and local

governments, businesses, research and civic organisations –

to identify SWOPs.

Stakeholders need to jointly experience and learn with new

forms of smart governance and policy concepts to advance

becoming a sustainable, smart nation.

The need for long-term policies with clear targets, actions and

strategic guidelines on national, regional and urban level will

need to be addressed to enable investors to support a nation-

wide deployment of smart nation concepts.

Nations need to highlight the needs for effective policy frames

at all levels to avoid being locked-in to resource-intensive,

energy-inefficient / carbon intensive / fossil fuel based

economy, lifestyles, cities, technologies and developments, as

the current states are.

Integrated Smart Nation Strategy initiatives require input from

a number of actors:

National Government; National Ministries; City/Local

Authorities; Regional Authorities.; Funding Organisations.

Private companies and public utilities; Research

Organisations; Citizens and NGOs.

Phase 1: Sustainable Nation Vision

o Understanding of global and regional trends

o Setting a Smart Nation Vision

Phase 2: Smart Nation Strategy and Roadmap

o Deriving qualitative and quantitative targets

o Definition of technological and non-technological measures

o Scenario calculation and comparison with business-as-usual scenario

o Establishing a monitoring and strategic intelligence system allowing

for policy learning to support a long-term transition process

Phase 3: Action/Implementation plan and Funding plan

o Definition of concrete actions (short, medium, long-term) for

implementation

o Perform Impact Assessment for planned activities

o Development of funding plan

o Preparation of demonstration projects

Phase 4: Dissemination and progress reports

o Making strategy and roadmap available on a national level

o Tracking of progress based on pre-defined milestones

Phase 5: Sustainable Smart Nation Development , Learning and

Regional Scale-up and Replication

o For EU, Commitment of Member States develop partnerships

between the smart nation front runners and their followers or

‘emerging’ smart nations

o Development of national frameworks for continuous smart nation

roll-out initiatives
