< About us >
We are an institution created by leading Internet professionals with the aim of accelerating change towards a new, more competitive and efficient economic model that maximizes the potential of people, companies and markets. Because The World IS Digital.
Because of its exponential capacity, the digital environment is a powerful enabler for transforming business models, production, organization, knowledge and society itself. But above all, it is a powerful enabler of a profound change in human attitudes towards change.
From here, the possibilities are endless. The key to reach a new level and go from touching the digital to embracing it, from using it to mastering it, is in knowledge, more specifically in the ability to adapt to the new reality. And ISDI is there to make that leap.

< Methodology: learning by doing >
A disruptive holistic approach, a comprehensive vision of digital & tech business taught in a modular, coordinated and updated every year. A practical approach with direct application in the digitization of real companies and aimed at immediate professionalization.
A methodology focused on the student, so that you get the most out of the experience of taking a master's degree or program, on-site or online, junior or executive. We have demonstrated the success of this learning model and its ability to fulfill the school's mission: to contribute to accelerating the digitalization of society.
< Digital Optimism manifesto >
We believe that the phenomenon of digitalization is not only inevitable but also positive, fun and exciting. Our attitude towards this new era should be one of curiosity, experimentation and enjoyment.
1. The person
The person is the center and the power resides in the individual. Never before has each of us had such a capacity to influence our environment.
2. The user
For the user, the digital environment makes life easier, richer, more interesting and fun, since it simplifies processes and eliminates bureaucracies, orders our chaos, saves our time, facilitates the acquisition of services and products, lowers prices, allows comparison , provides access to data, content, services and products, encourages communication, contact and mutual help.
3. The society
The digital society is more egalitarian. Reduce differences in sex, race, beliefs and nationalities. What matters is the conversation, not the characteristics of who is behind it.
4. The digital world
The digital world is more global and humanity is more connected. The geographical and psychological borders are blurred since we are all within the same Internet world in which communication is easy and instantaneous and contact with other cultures and ways of understanding the world is automatic. This encourages and facilitates solidarity and understanding.
5. The digital environment
The digital environment favors the development of talent, eliminating barriers to intermediation, financing and access: ideas are closer to reality, art and artists closer to their public, entrepreneurs closer to profit, products within reach of the markets.
6. World of work
For the world of work, digital technology facilitates family conciliation, the choice of residence and the integration of people with disabilities, making the slavery of schedules and physical presence in a static job more flexible.
7. Knowledge
The vast knowledge of all humanity throughout its history, updated in real time, is finally available to that same humanity and access to education and culture to immense layers of society, which was once denied, is now possible.
8. Share
The ability to generate, share and access direct and real-time conversations on a planetary scale between individuals guarantees transparency in information and reduces the gags of censorship, interpretation and manipulation by power groups..
9. Report and combat
The immense power of the digital environment also allows its tools to be used to do evil. Our mission is to report and combat such attitudes and situations with the power that the digital world has given us. But we will not let the establishment turn isolated negative actions of individuals, organizations or groups into self-serving arguments to delay the unstoppable digital development.
< This manifesto has no point 10 >
Because the speed of the digital world means that it is continually being rewritten by all of us, at the same speed that the rest of the articles are being deleted or modified as they become outdated.
