"Silicon Valley will definitely benefit from the co-operation of new generation start-up companies and vice versa," said the Estonian Head of State; his address focused on introducing the principles of e-governance, trans-Atlantic co-operation and the current disadvantages of the common European digital market.
According to President Ilves, cross-border application should be the future of national e-service, e-prescription being one of them. "It should be possible for all citizens to use their ID-card to buy their medications from any pharmacy anywhere in Europe. Everyone would benefit from such a solution; however, we still have a long way to go before these opportunities are realised," he stated.
