EDITORIAL: Make better use of technology

Jul 29, 2013

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados - In this country’s efforts to grapple with its challenging economic circumstances as well as build a platform on which to record growth and boost job opportunities for its people, some emphasis will have to be placed on making greater and better use of technology.
It is evident that a knowledge-based economy will be critical to our very survival. The application of sciences will be a key component in any such approach.
That is why the efforts of the Caribbean Science Foundation and others who are promoting technology-based entrepreneurship must be given our fullest support. It seems a sure way of creating new, sustainable, high-paying jobs and generating foreign exchange while competing in a demanding and ever-changing global market.
