"A small country needs to have friends and allies across the world and
taking part in the activities of the World Economic Forum definitely offers
great opportunities for expanding the network of our country's friends.
Therefore it is important for us to contribute to the work of the forum,"
Ratas was quoted by spokespeople as saying at the forum.
"There is a saying in English - sharing is caring. It is a principle
we have followed also when building our e-state and it has been the key to our
success. We have learned a great deal from others over the years and we gladly
pass our experience forward," Ratas said.
According to the head of government, EU heads of state affirmed at the
summit in Tallinn in September that in the future the common market is also
digital. In addition to the free movement of goods and services, data and
e-services move across borders.
"Europe must be open to innovation and support fair competition is
order to encourage the private sector to develop innovative products and modern
services. The European economy can grow only based on digital technologies,
being based on science and close cooperation," the prime minister said.
