The Networked Readiness Index (NRI) was first published in 2002 by the World Economic Forum as part of the Global Information Technology Report. Over the last two decades, the NRI has provided a holistic view of how economies can deploy technology to enhance development and global competitiveness.
In addition to the analysis on how economies have dealt with and continue to fare in the face of present-day challenges, the 2022 edition of the index (NRI 2022, henceforth) focuses on the role of younger generations in leading the world into the information age. As indicated by the developers, recent trends indicate that future-readiness will largely rely on three major currencies: data, talent, and learning. On all those fronts, we are only seeing the beginning of what tomorrow will bring. The future is still very young, and we all have a role to play in shaping it into the future we want.
