The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank featured an ECCB Connects episode on innovation and economic transformation, drawing on remarks by Ross Cadastre, founder of ITS Global, BICOPJobs.ca and TalentBank Caribbean, Canada, at the 10th Annual Growth and Resilience Dialogue. The discussion framed small-island developing states as positioned to benefit from shifts in the global economy if current momentum is converted into long-term growth and competitiveness. Cadastre identified five pillars for regional transformation: talent systems, digital infrastructure, capital innovation, entrepreneurship and coordination that can measure whether the process is working. He argued that aligned execution across these areas can support the region’s future development.
