In his speech, Florian dives into digital networks, talking about digitalization and the creation of a digital network, and about Estonia's success in building a digital society. Florian Marcus is a German political scientist who has lived, studied and worked in three different countries, including Estonia. He holds two Master’s degrees in the fields of political science, security studies and international relations from University College London and the University of Tartu. For three years, Florian Marcus served as a Digital Transformation Adviser at the e-Estonia Briefing Centre to raise awareness regarding e-government solutions with decision-makers around the world.
In 2022 he joined the digital society consultancy firm Proud Engineers to help build a more digital future by advising governments and large corporations with their challenges on the way. Although we live in one of the most technologically developed countries in the world, there are still things to bear in mind when it comes to governing our digital state. As he has said it himself: “Digitalisation is a tool and, as with every other tool, there are right and wrong ways to wield it.” This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
