Includes case study & teaching notes. A great set piece class for faculty & an engaging read for policy makers.

It all started over a conversation with @ritulgaur.bsky.social at the @carnegieindia.bsky.social conference.
Gratitude to him & @jordynfetter.bsky.social for PMing our case studies.

Based on interviews with those involved, the case explores the history and policy choices the team faced:
- Build? or establish standards for private wallets?
- Use mandates to drive adoption?
- Prioritise use cases?
- What governance would ensure transparency & trust?

During digital transformation courses I invariably call upon an Indian national to open their digilocker app & show their ID, driver's license, college diploma, land deed...
Students are blown away by the demo. Here is a paperless government. They ask... how did the Indian government do this?

This teaching case is great for policy makers trying to understand tradeoffs and faculty trying to teach government digital transformation.
We have both a case to read and teaching notes.

Batteries Dominate Zero-Emission Truck Sales:

"The prospects for hydrogen in road transport look dim. Cost for both vehicles and fuel remain high, infrastructure is challenging, buyers seem uninterested and generous government subsidies won’t last forever."

Ha! I was so tired when I posted this!!

Also, if you don’t have a copy of Sneakers on a hard drive somewhere… I don’t know where you were at in the 90s and 2000s…

I love this. Not 100% sure about the conclusion. I observe that most English people think traveling 2.5 hours by any means constitutes a “long” journey whereas in North Americans think nothing of it. There is a cultural/mindset piece that i can’t evidence but feels it impacts this.
