Introduction to DIGITAL OPPORTUNITIES ‘Gbenga Sesan | University of Ibadan, Oyo State, NIGERIA. January 30th pm

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…
