Advanced information and communication services in politics and markets

A seminar on advanced information and communication services in politics and markets will be held in Tampere, Finland, on 28 November 1997. The event is organized by VTT/Information technology and EPRI-Watch, as part of the Tampere Multimedia Festival.

The first session, on advanced communications in politics, will look at the possibilities at different levels, from national parliaments down to regional and local levels. It will concentrate in particular on openness and information services. The second session will cover communications services in markets, and will address electronic commerce and the role of SMEs.

Parallel sessions will address the two themes in more detail, giving participants the opportunity to discuss in depth issues in their field of interest. During the afternoon session, the award ceremony for the Tampere Multimedia Prize will be held.
