# Digital Planet

**Digital Planet** is a research center at **Tufts University's Fletcher School**. Together with [[entity-via-science-inc]], it is the co-creator of the [[concept-digital-evolution-index]].

It is chaired by [[entity-bhaskar-chakravorti]] and staffed by the source's co-authors ([[entity-abidemi-adisa]], [[entity-christina-filipovic]], [[entity-xue-niu]]).

Enrichment context: Digital Planet leads both the **Digital Evolution Index** and the earlier **Digital Intelligence Index (DII)**, focusing on evidence-based insights into digital competitiveness and resilience. The DII introduced the "entrepôts / linchpins" framing later reflected in [[concept-the-lynchpins]].
