Two Numbers Rule This World

Almost everything that we do today is guided by the two numbers, “0” and “1” – it’s the digital age. We are continually represented by numbers…

Every AGE has it’s own key. For the Digital/Information Age, the key is Information and Communication Technologies…

The difference between peoples, nations and organisations will be their levels of interaction with “0”s and “1”s. That explains the Digital Divide

You don’t have a choice, even Mars is already responding to these two numbers that rule the world

Digitization of Global Economies

All economies bend to the “law of the time”. That explains why nations that embrace “digital opportunities” are called FIRST WORLD while those that fight over natural resources are THIRD WORLD

The collapse of global physical boundaries will expose every earthling to the same digital communities with digital expectations – Share Tade’s experience trying to buy pizza in the digital age

Career paths share the same tangent. Embracing digital opportunities marks out professionals

Your World in 2017: A peep into the Digital Future. You have only few years to get ready…

Digital Opportunities

Prepared people will always see opportunities. People call them lucky, they know they were prepared

Breaking beyond the learning curve opens up digital opportunities – diverse and immeasurable

Information Systems (Old and New), Telecommunications, Computing and Networks have converged and are driving the growth of digital opportunities

Digital opportunities thrive more with the imagination than with muscles, certificates and/or connections
