    I’d read that Tallinn was ahead of most countries in e-government, but I think the moment it truly sunk in was when a founder here told me about the campaign to give people 10 minutes off work to vote in the upcoming election.

        The tally just came in today, 250k e-voters (from 1M total pool). Up from 178k in 4 years. Depending where overall participation comes in, e-voting is approaching 1/2 soon. Glad you liked our little "take 10 minutes" initiative. ;)

        Efficiency and innovation deeply embedded through the whole nation. Hence why so many amazing startups come from Estonia #estonianmafia cc @taavet

        The other interesting aspect here is that this kind of e-gov initiative can be used as platform for startups (who then become one for other startups) This company (you most likely know) is comparable to Atlas but build on top of these of egov toolshttps://leapin.eu

        And it goes beyond just e-government. The initiatves they have are very startup-like. They have a Chief Innovation Officer They run focus groups aimed at customer experience (customers being their voters). Great startup environment. It's the most enabling gov't I've seen

        Thanks for sharing, Estonia continues to be a trail blazer in this Digital Era. Hd the pleasure to meet one of the experts mentioned in this article, I cannot explain the enthusiasm and passion he had sharing Estonia's vision and accomplishments in e-gov serv - very inspiring!
