Mr. Young-Gak Yun

Main idea:
Digital divide is a significant problem, but there are promising public-private partnerships addressing it.

Important points:

  1. Digital divide statistics: Only half of people in developed countries have reliable internet access, with worse situations in emerging countries.
  2. Corporate initiatives: Examples of Microsoft, Facebook, and Visa collaborating with NGOs and governments to improve digital access.
  3. Policy suggestion: Proposed taxing digital ad revenues to fund internet access and digital literacy education.
