Building a Vibrant Digital Future

Building a Vibrant Digital Future is a programme convened by Jericho on behalf of Nominet. As the official registry for UK domain names, Nominet has unique view on the digital progress of the UK and what it takes to bring about a vibrant digital future, one that is inclusive, benefitting the many, not the few.

The challenge was to realise the Vibrant Digital Future goal in a meaningful way, making sure this mission could be articulated, researched, communicated and above all implemented as something more substantive than a ‘purpose’ sound-bite. A series of roundtables in 2016-17, with high-profile actors and thinkers in the digital space, representing government and organisations such as Accenture, Barclays, British Chambers of Commerce, BiTC, Google, LSE, McKinsey and Vodafone (gathered from Jericho’s community of influencers), defined different elements of a positive (vibrant) digital future. These were subsequently categorised into three pillars of inclusivity, security and connectivity.
