Four key areas for improvement health care, farming, banking and education.
Key take aways:
- This man is serious about his goals/visions, each sector has very specific goals, its very hard to come up with goals/vision
- Health
- Upstream: inventing new vaccines specifically for kids less than five years
- Downstream: How do you get them out to kids around the worls
- Goal: Currently one out of twenty kids dies before age of 5, this should increase to one in forty
- Farming
- Better seeds with resistance to heat & low water, which hints GMO stuff but at least educating farmers about the benefits
- Improved credit & loan systems for farmers
- Increase world food productivity
- Education
- Emphasis on online learning
- Improve critical programming skills
- Basics of reading & writing
- Tablet computing should have a sandbox to test new code
- Banking
- In my view banking vision is radical and I see it coming soon, for small transactions banks are loosing money
- Banking digital infrastructure should be revised to create a utility type service that lets you move money to pay someone else or switch from one bank to another. This calls in for a new regulatory infrastructure where money transfer system is licensed like phone numbers with banks (switching bank accounts should be like switching phone services)
