Dear all,
we would like to invite you to the first
TRANSACT Workshop on Future Developments in Business Networks and
Transaction Systems
on May 17th / 18th. 2001 in Brussels.
The workshop is organised for research and development projects funded
by the European Commission under Key Action II of the IST programme. The
goal is
- to identify trends in the area of technology support for online
business cooperation,
- to analyse future objetives for closing the gap between business needs
and the current technical infrastructure, and
- to support projects by collaboration and establishing working groups
in the area of their respective expertises
IST projects are encouraged to get actively involved in clustering
activites to support a fruitful cooperation between projects that focus
on similar areas of research and development. TRANSACT is a cluster
activity that facilitates this co-operation specifically by the workshop
planned for May 17th / 18th.
However, the workshop is not limited to active IST projects. We also
expect participants from other industrial or research communities with a
specific focus on business networks and transaction systems.
The workshop will have three sources of contributions:
1. Invited speakers from the European Commission and from
standardisation organisations
2. Presentations by IST projects
3. Open discussion on future developments among the participants.
IMPORTANT DEADLINE: May 4th, 2001
By this date we need your presentation material as well as your
registration.
