In all my years of broadcasting, I have never had the opportunity to interview in one place over the course of a single day some of this country’s most notable high-tech thought leaders. Through this series of videos, you will gain an unprecedented look into the minds of the people who will be shaping Canada’s digital future.
Individually, each one of these leaders provides an interesting perspective on their organization’s digital vision. Collectively, the series delivers powerful insights into Canada’s digital future from both a domestic as well as a global standpoint. With the former, Guelph Mayor Cam Guthrie’s interview is especially noteworthy as he shows how his city has not only embraced the digital revolution but in many ways has taken the lead through innovative “civic tech” initiatives.
As a lead-in to the interviews, the first video is from my recent television appearance in which I talk about #ActivateDigital2018, followed by the entire video series.
