Canada guest of honour at French ICT and Internet conference
Nice, France, May 10 -11, 2006 > The 6th Assises Nationales du Net et des TIC has
become France’s leading event dedicated to all levels of Internet and ICT management,
infrastructure, service and use.
The 2005 edition welcomed over 1,000 participants from all over France. Communities
accounted for 60% of registrations, and most were senior managers and computer
technologists.
This year’s conference has three objectives:
- to create a platform for information exchange;
- to promote knowledge-sharing between elected officials and technicians; and
- to bring communities and service providers together.
Through organized workshops, the conference will also help to address regional,
departmental and community concerns. This year’s event will provide Canadian
manufacturers with a good opportunity to meet with possible clients or potential partners
for joint endeavours in French public and institutional markets.
As part of the “Year of Canada in Nice” (www.canadanice.org), Canada will be the guest
of honour at the event and will introduce its latest technological achievements that have
made the country a leader in the e-government sector.
The Canadian Embassy in Paris will coordinate a booth for Canadian companies
specializing in the ICT and e-government sectors. The booth will showcase both
Canadian public policies and the know-how developed by Canadian companies in
France.
