If your approach could provide an adequate structure for integrating information, communication, and knowledge technologies to promote the acceleration of economic growth and sustainable development of the Dominican Republic, then I'm interested.
As the Director of Economic Development of the Fundaci?n Global Democracia y Desarrollo of the Dominican Republic (
www.funglode.org), which is Chaired by Dr. Leonel Fern?ndez, former President of the Dom. Rep. (1996-2000) I am very interested, as well as others in the Fundaci?n (in charge of Science and Technology, Information Technology, Biotechnology, Telecommunications, Cabling).
The rapid volatile processes of economic and technological changes happening in our country have left traditional businesses and the great majority of our entrepreneurs in the dust, wondering about how to reorganize themselves and their firms to adapt to new realities; if they want to survive, compete and prosper in these times.
The entrepeneural capacity of the dominican business community is one of the greatest in the region; but the formal educational level of the majority of the businesspersons, employees, and workers of most firms have become a binding restriction on many economic sector's development.
We definitely need to find innovative ways to quickly educate the uneducated and upgrade the traditionally educated. We need to reorganize our knowledge related processes to break the chains of ignorance that enslave many of our people and create new ways for them to acquire the knowledge they need to raise the quality of their living standards in a relatively short time. This might only be achieved within the context of a scientific and technical revolution, as the one we are undergoing.
