Davos, and a Tech Policy Summit Preview
Jan 23, 2008
Many of the world's leading power brokers, and the press that cover them, have descended on Davos, Switzerland this week for the World Economic Forum's annual gathering. While we're stateside (in a warmer location, we might add), we'll be sharing updates on the technology-focused discussions taking place in Davos over the next several days.
We are also excited to announce that one of the authors of the World Economic Forum's 2007-2008 Global IT Report, Bruno Lanvin, will be on hand at the Tech Policy Summit conference in March. Mr. Lanvin is the executive director of INSEAD's eLab, one of the top digital economy research centers in the world.
The results of the annual Global IT Report will be released on the opening day of the 2008 Summit, March 26th, and we're fortunate to have Mr. Lanvin join us from Europe to present the findings firsthand and to discuss what it means for the international information economy.
Since the WEF is based in Geneva, it's a unique opportunity for Summit participants to preview the global rankings and ask questions about the methodology on the day they're unveiled. As you may remember, last year's results placed Denmark in the No. 1 spot when it came to IT readiness, with the U.S. dropping to 7th place.
What will this year's report reveal? Reserve your seat at Tech Policy Summit to find out in person!
