Video Not Working? Fix It Now

Join to hear a story of collaboration and transformation. Joel will provide a "detailed look into how the country of Estonia rose from the ashes of Soviet occupation to become a global leader in technology, startups, and e-government in a single generation." The book is available for pre-order. What role does AI play in the design, implementation and ongoing operation of advanced e-services? Cory has a great take! How did a small post-Soviet state become a digital and e-government powerhouse, producing world-leading tech companies and pioneering policies for remote residency? We'll also hear from Cory how Tech for Good helps facilitate and propagate tech-driven, people-centered tech transformations. "The Baltic nation has digitalised 99% of its public services and continuously maintains one of the highest ratings of public trust in governments in the EU. This digital transformation allows its citizens to access all public services – except marriages and divorces – online. All in all, the Estonian government claims that the digitalisation of public services saves the country more than 1,400 years of working time and 2% of its GDP annually." - Tech for Good Speakers Cory Warfield, Editor-in-Chief @ Tech For Good Joel Burke, Author of "Rebooting a Nation", Policy analyst at Mozilla 2025 LIR Sponsors and Supporters: • New Jersey State Library • Texas State Library and Archives Commission • Mission Telecom • Washington State Library
