On this week’s Insights, Don and David talk with Adrienne Oldford, Executive Director at the McKenna Institute. Almost 30 years ago, then Premier Frank McKenna had a vision for what was called the ‘information superhighway’ and how it could transform the New Brunswick economy and society. While there have been some important successes, by some measures New Brunswick is a laggard when it comes to digital technology adoption. The former Premier had an idea to rekindle the province’s leadership in this area and asked Adrienne to help bring that vision to fruition. Now, $50 million in pledged support later, she has a team of 10 staff and the ambition to help transform the province through digital technology. Adrienne tells Don and David all about it in this informative and inspiring conversation.
