behind in the development of new business models and technologies in this field, which means that the opening of public data could benefit only more competitive global competitors. In education, open learning environments should be designated so as to employ innovative pedagogical approaches to fully use the opportunities the use of ICT in learning and teaching processes provides. Slovenia will invest in the development of an open platform for digital content and services, the introduction of new teaching concepts, models of added value and motivation mechanisms for open education. It will establish an enabling research and development environment for the effective use of ICT in education and pursue synergistic effects. The process of developing the national computer cloud follows the centralised approach to the establishment of the necessary information and communication infrastructure for various information systems. Consolidation of digitizing individual areas will take into account the search for synergies in terms of infrastructure between different sub-sectors of the public sector and take part in broader efforts of the state for the development of interoperable solutions based on open standards and data that will open up the opportunities of the ICT sector in foreign markets. There is a continued development of the national high-capacity computer group for research institutions - Slovenian initiative for the national grid (SLING) coordinated by Arnes. In the context of Arnes’ computer cloud, a development-innovation cloud will be established in collaboration with the national computer cloud, which will facilitate the public and private sectors’ development of innovative data-driven services based on open public and research data, and will also be available for educational and research purposes. The purpose of integrating the national, Arnes and development and innovation computer clouds, including cloud computing services available on the market, is to achieve synergistic effects. Pre-commercial public procurement for the development of innovative solutions is being encouraged by using open public and research data, industrial open development platforms and the national development and innovation computer cloud for the faster transfer of solutions to the market. In order to develop a data-driven economy and innovative services, Slovenia shall:  develop its own enabling technologies, digital infrastructures and knowledge,  systematically develop its sources of public data, infrastructure for their exchange and use, and infrastructure for facilitating development,  continue the development of national computer cloud,  continue the development of the Arnes computer cloud and high-capacity computer group for research institutions - SLING,  develop digital infrastructure for open research and public data,  develop national research and development computer cloud,  steer public research and innovations towards technological, legal and other bottlenecks,  establish a stimulating development environment for data-driven economy (interoperability, data protection, consumer protection, network safety, intellectual property, regulative stability, establishment of trust of consumers in data technologies) by adapting the legal framework and development policies,  carry out a coordinated digitisation of the private sector, entrepreneurship, enterprises and factories (industry 4.0), DIGITAL SLOVENIA 2020 - Development strategy for the information society until 2020 29
