“Shape of the New Digital Era”

# ESKO Aho ex PM of Finland and ex Nokia Executive Chairman

 Digital Age

– ICC International Chamber Commercial :

– Finland and Thailand are both depend on foreign exchange trade  

– today we talk about Digital Age , Digital economic , how to success in Digital Age

– what make different on success or fail on business , VIsion <– 

– He doesn’t believe only Leadership make different for business like Good Leadership make good business bad leadership make bad business it ok but not at all there are somethings more special

– I know NOkia since it was childhood ; he will make Nokia for example found 1865 NOKIA Also goes up and down

– Once it close to Bankrupt , it has many kinds of product line Rubber ,wood , TV , and also Telecommunication , even the owner of Nokia even thinking of selling company to Erikson

– It is not about Leader but it is about business concept and context , Europe in that time has many thing change

– Nokia sold 80% of asset to focus on 20% of the rest asset , so they focus on Mobile business ( from multi-functional to focus business) 

– First day believe Mobile business is the future and the market would growth 5 times in 10 years ( 10 millions people in 1990 to 50 million in 2000)

– Second Finland ( the country will be able to provide ) has good R&D FUnding , Infrastucture and also people 

– Europe is the best place in the world to invent mobile technology GSM has been develop in Copenhagen EU will be world biggest SIngle market 

– High Risk Concept <– for Nokie that time , but for the result is User in 2000 = 700 million people  

– 1993 Nokie market cap rise from 300 millions USD to 300,000 Million USD in 2000

– We can not focus on today concept & context so we have to future concept ( we can’t change environmental context so we need to change our concept)

– He give us example such as IBM and KODAK if you not chnage you might disappear

– ” Concept & Context ” he insist this rule can you vary from company business even for Countries

– For example USSR and CHINa is the leadership make different of this two countries let see how much it should put the faith on Leaders or Concept   

let see CHina ” No matter what the Cat color as long as they can catch mouese”

Context Changing the game

– Esko was PM in the age of 36 when he was PM he just happen to know 1991 Finland was in crisis GDP was -7% the worse in Finland historic after independent in normal time ( no war)

– They decide to change business fundamental such as they did not more or less in Industrial , Trade and rely a lot on USSR  

– what he did is Devaluation Currency but this is short term it can’t be use in the long run  

– Only most 3 important decision to bring back FINLAND competitiveness

      JOIN EU –> we took the changllege

      Reform Tax system –> Lesser tax incentive company anymore

      Increase Funding R&D 62% even they cut off other funding in countries   

– even tax rate is down from 43% to 25% but only two year FINLAND can get Tax 3.5 time more than before because of company gain more benefit  

– if you ask the FIN , why no more NOKIE , they we says becuase of leadership 

    He siad no , he was there it is about concept 

– He siad Technology change the world 

– 2008 when he join the company Nokie concetp is the same but context is change because Hardware is not the main for industry but SOftware ( iphone is coming with apps)

– They asked existing customers , not future customers they didn’t notice that the younger gen Z like touch sceen or keyboard , they not ask future target future concept and Digital Market

 – 2008 is the years that Nokia gain the biggest market share 40% , iphone get 1% market share , when you are in the top you dont want to change a thing , legacy ( who will dare to reform that time) at that time it looks good but actually when they not change it is over

– 2011 Nokie knew we have to change there are 3 concept

    1 Develop their own system but no capacities anymore 

     2 GO ANdoird cant because Samsung is too strong already

  3 GO with Microsoft ( give up their own operation system)
and later on they sold all device business to Microsoft 

and New Concept 

Now NOkia still survive but on Network business ( I even don’t know) now still top three in biz in EU

 

then now we go for our lecture  

– Shape of the new Digital Era : it is not about how create technology but it is about how we take benefit of them

– 43% of US people spend time on phone is game social is 25% Entertainment music 10%

– He talked about IOT ( internet of thing ) why entertainment is dominant mobile spending time ( please sum Social + game + music movie entertainment up above) is that because leadership ” no ” it is about economic context

– Furure oppornity of internet of thing : 17% of US GDP spend on Healthcare if now all of those matter on THailand US or FINN not about Percent ( talk about three entertainment above ) then compare with healcafe 17% but not tomorrow ( same as nokia ( 1990 – 2000) 

– who will create the winning concept same as Apple did Nokia did before on IOT

– in next decade Digital technology will speard around and relate to all business and industries but who will make right concept ( winning concept )  

– PAT siad great idea of game is to make online – offline together ( P LENG siad also )

– the most important not how to create new app or tech but how to apply and utilize

– how diff invention or innovation : the best answer he like Harvard said ” what opposite of innovation ” = Imitation ( Copied Cat) Imitation can’t change fundamatal change , but Innovation do ( no risk , no innovation because becaise it is not imitation )

– Digital revolution : ( multi disciplinary talent ) required for new innovation such as when electricity COMPUTER so as well as Digital Age < ——— YESSSSSS inDEEDDDDD

– He said people need to be Multi disciplinary talents ใน อนาคต ต้องเก่งรอบด้าน และ บูรณาการทุกอย่าง มารวมกัะนเพื่อนใช้ได้เ 

– Crisis allow new concept ( ปัญหา คือ บิดา นักประดิษ วิกฤต คือ โอกาส)

– Isarael PM 92 years old answer why you alwsy look yong , People will be always Young when he has dream more than memory

GOod side of Games in your opinion

YOu mention about 43% of US people spend time on mobile with game if my company has not high technology and I want to take chance on that 43% what kind of digital business idea you suggest me to do ?

and we don’t need create new but how to utilize

Digital Game ; 2004 Angry bird super sale Public Venture Digital game and IOT People want to learn by Gmes now boy speaking english better than girl in school by games
