- Jonas Schwarz Lausten,\nBusiness Development Manger, Seismonaut Africa\nCo-founder and Co-owner The Nordic Villa, Abuja - a 10 room boutique hotel in Abuja, furnished in a Scandinavian style\nWorked in the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation and was the head of Social Media on a EU program that strived to make it easier for Europeans to apply for jobs an take an education in another EU country. \n
- My background and interest for Nigeria and Africa started in 2006 when I build the first playground in Adamawa State at REMI foundation, a unique school that takes in physical and mental handicapped children. The playground became so polular that even the teachers were playing on it.\n
- Then I joined Seismonaut, which is a digital innovation consultancy founded in Denmark with two offices in the two biggeste cities.\n
- We deliver strategic paths to companies and governments accros Europe and Africa\n
- We create digital solutions, services and products\n
- Also from our local office in Abuja.\n
- In Seismonaut we always use out four phased innovation model. \n1. Map: To provide successful products and services it is pivotal to gain insight into both the market and the end user. Our research is based in ethnography.\n2. Create: In this phase we create ideas and concepts based on the Mapping-phase.\n3. Shape: We shape and perfect the concepts from the Create-phase.\n4. Build: And finally we build solutions that resonate, because they are based on solid research, knowledge and methods.\n\n
- As a digital focused innovation consultancy we see challenges when it comes to the use of social media. \n
- \n
- Citizens can mobilize and have expectations to the government\n\n
- Remember this? Approx. 14 months ago things in Egypt was just as it always have been and then, suddenly – revolution – through social media – it gave people a voice and a way to connect and mobilize.\n
- Better service for citizens - strengthing the participatory democracy because of insights in decision-making process. Citizens have a voice that is being heard.\n

- The first memorandum Obama signed when he became president was on Transparency and Open Government. The Obama administration wanted to commit to creating an unprecedented level of openness in Government.  They wanted to work together to ensure the public trust and establish a system of transparency, public participation, and collaboration (important terms – also for the way we in Seismonaut work). Openness would strengthen their democracy and promote efficiency and effectiveness in Government.\n\n\n\nhttp://www.google.com/imgres?q=common+creative+obama+pictures&hl=da&client=safari&sa=X&rls=en&biw=1360&bih=786&tbs=isz:l&tbm=isch&tbnid=_J6R9lwdj0W_MM:&imgrefurl=http://dailytrojan.com/2011/01/26/washington-is-turning-toward-common-ground/&docid=vMw5wj_aPiaF8M&imgurl=http://dailytrojan.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/US_Navy_091026-N-5549O-249_President_Barack_Obama_delivers_remarks_to_an_audience_of_Sailors_and_Marines_before_introducing_President_Barack_Obama_during_a_visit_to_U.S._Naval_Air_Station_Jacksonville.jpg&w=4008&h=2672&ei=6_usT5nrDMTVsga36Mz8Cw&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=699&vpy=185&dur=1716&hovh=183&hovw=275&tx=154&ty=131&sig=101299582834760524134&page=1&tbnh=126&tbnw=161&start=0&ndsp=32&ved=1t:429,r:4,s:0,i:79\n
- Obama kick-started this whole movement which we today refer to as gov. 2.0 - participation, collaboration and transparency from the memorandum.\nBut what we also see it tremendous opportunities for creating business... opening up data. Providing new services on top of that. \n

- Dialogue with the citizens in a new way\nGovernments needs to be proactive otherwise this mobilization that I talked about before will come from beneath and it will turn you over in a matter of weeks. Be prepared in a good way – not to hide or prevent this development But EMBRASE this and turn it into something good and something that Nigeria, Oyo state, Ekiti state and all the other states can benefit from.\n\n
- Norwegian public servants are blogging about what is happening in the local governement.\n

- we did Atiku’s digital media campaign in the primary elections 2011. \nOur main objectives was to make him much more accessable via social media. Being transparent.
