INSPIRATION'96: The global Information Society and lifelong learning
The conference programme will focus on the critical changes required in the delivery of public services, particularly education and social services, and the need for public services to develop IT strategies which take account of new digital technologies.
It will also provide information on the various funding opportunities available from the European Community for the development of regional IT initiatives, including the Inter-Regional Information Society Initiative (IRISI). There will be presentations from officials from the Commission Directorates-General involved in funding in this area, and from Mrs. Edith Cresson, European Commissioner responsible for science, research and development.
In tandem with the conference, a "Knowledge Complex" will allow companies the opportunity to exhibit and demonstrate their products to the 1,000 participants expected to attend.
