Description:

Which tiny country has created a model for digital government?  Estonia, population 1.3 million, has a digital ID that allows you to travel within the European Union. It's your health insurance card. It gives you proof of identification when you're logging into a bank account. You can vote online. You can check your medical records, submit tax claims and you can use the e-prescription service.  Estonia also has the most unicorns – start-ups worth at least a billion dollars – of any country in Europe.  And all this is in the thirty years since it achieved independence from the Soviet Union. Host Jim Love speaks with Anett Numa, the Head of Government Relations for the Estonian Governmental Innovation Lab.
