Dear colleague,

 

We are pleased to confirm that the Internet Technical Community (ITC) will be hosting an open Forum on the 16^th June, in Seoul, Korea. We would be honored if members from your organization attended this event.

 

The Internet technical community has been actively engaged in the preparation of the next OECD ministerial conference that will be held from the 17^th to the 19^th June in Korea. Acting as a liaison between the OECD Secretary General and the Internet Technical Community, the Internet Society (ISOC) has been coordinating the ITC’s participation in the OECD ICCP meetings over the last year.

 

This forum is designed to be a direct contribution to the ministers’ work within three areas: Creativity, Confidence and Convergence. This will be a great opportunity for the Internet Technical Community and OECD member states’ delegates to share experiences and exchange perspectives on the “Future of the Internet Economy”. Deadline for registration is 31 May 2008.

 

An agenda for the ITC open Forum is available online here:
