Georgia must be on these maps of high-technology countries Should you be on this map is no longer a question – You must be on the map! The longer you wait, the harder it gets! 6
You are doing excellent science in Georgia, but what happens with it? • You don’t get many requests for R&D from Georgian companies, nor foreign companies. • Your innovative products don’t get into the global marketplace. • Your laboratories are not being modernized. • You’re not competing adequately for FP7 and H2020 grants. • Your young scientists are leaving you. • High technology business is not growing in Georgia. 7
The rest of the world doesn’t know about Georgian science and technology, and has little interest in it. 8
Something is wrong! • Today Georgia exports wine and Borjomi. This is excellent, but it’s not enough! • Today you are not a globally-recognized scientific and technological leader. • Therefore, my conclusion is that you’re not getting it right. I believe it needs to be corrected. • I believe things need to change. 9
