Keynote Summary

COVID-19 accelerates innovations of digitization with the Internet in all business sectors. Especially, the education and healthcare business has experienced huge impacts for their basic and essential business structure. For example, we realize that a lot of educational activities can be by online without physical appearance and that lectures can be not for few dozens in physical lecture room, but for millions in the Internet and in the cyber space, i.e., without the limitation of time, location, age or gender. This is "un-wire-ing" from anchors connected to physical domain. This shall lead the innovation of all systems on the globe with Internet-by-Design.
