Dear
Sir
Alan
Levin kindly provided me with your contact details.
We
are pleased to announce that the Internet Industry Alliance (IIIA) meeting will
be held in Mulderdrift, South Africa this year.
The
IIIA was formed in 2007 as a forum for ISP organisations from around the world
to share information and collaborate on issues of mutual interest.
IIIA
members and some of the participants in this year's event include:
-
The Internet Industry Association of Singapore
-
The United States Internet Industry Association
-
The Internet Industry Association (Australia)
-
The Internet Service Providers Association of South Africa
-
AfrISPA
-

-
The Cyber Café Association of India (CCAOI)
We
have identified your organisation as an ISP representative association/forum
that might find it beneficial to attend this year's IIIA meeting to discuss
issues of mutual interest to ISPs around the world, and plan future
co-operation.
The
Internet Service Providers' Association of South Africa (ISPA) and UniForum SA
(the co.za administrators) will be hosting the Internet Industry Alliance
(IIIA) meeting as part of this year's annual industry conference to be held at

each region, and to discuss issues of global importance, including: cybercrime,
copyright, net neutrality, domain names, content liability, privacy and data
retention. A draft programme is available on the iWeek web site: http://www.iweek.org.za/
