winyy #63 - Weekly innovation newsletter by Yuichiro Yoshinari

winyy Issue #63ビザの更新のために日本に一時帰国しました。成田空港での水際対策のおかげで空港を出るのに3時間かかりました。水際対策がどのようになっているのかご存知ですか？　依然として紙に頼る記録、人手による重複したチェック作業、動線の悪さ、複数の似たようなアプリ…これが1年にわたるパンデミックで対策を税金を投入して強化してきたなれの果てです。これが先進国なのか、と悲しくなりました。全体をデザインする人がおらず、個別個別では一生懸命だけど、そのパワーが正しい方向に向かわず、結果的に前に進まない、投資の割に効果があがらない、というDigital Transformationやイノベーションが進まない日本との相似形を見た感があります。いろいろな気付きがあったので、どこかでまとめておこうと思います。久しぶりの日本なので、Boundary Spannerの目線でいろいろと観察したいと思います。前号で一番クリックされた記事は、"Carbon removal hype is becoming a dangerous distraction" でした。今週号も気に入ってもらえたら、メールの末尾の「いいね！」ボタンをお願いします！拡散大歓迎。サインナップはこちら。Twitter ---> @winyy2020winyy Issue #63I temporarily returned to Japan to renew my visa. It took me three hours to get out of the airport thanks to the waterfront measures at Narita Airport. Do you know what waterfront measures are in place?　Still relying on paper records, duplicate manual checks, poor lines of movement, multiple similar apps... This is the end result of a year-long pandemic and taxpayer-funded enhancement of measures. I was saddened to see this in a developed country. There is no one to design the whole, and although people are working hard in each individual case, their power is not directed in the right direction, and as a result, they are not moving forward, and the effect is not worth the investment. There were a lot of things that I realized, and I would like to summarize them somewhere.It's been a while since I've been to Japan, so I'd like to observe things from the perspective of a "Boundary Spanner."The most read news last week was "Carbon removal hype is becoming a dangerous distraction."Please press the 'Like it' button at the end of the email if you like this issue.Sign up page is here.
