Dear Colleagues,
We are very pleased to invite you for the IT Revolutions 2010 International Symposium, e-Government 3.0: A New Paradigm toward Visible u-Driven Revolutions and Opportunities, to be held from June 25th to 26th, 2010 in Seoul, Korea. The Symposium will be co-hosted by the Korea Forum for Electronic Government (KFeG) and the Institute for Computer Sciences, social-Informatics and Telecommunications (ICST). The Symposium will be sponsored by the Korean Ministry of Public Administration and Security (MOPAS). Other IT industry corporations including Sam Sung SDS, LG-CNS, SK C&C, KT, and Korea Venture Business Association will also be sponsoring the symposium with their own prepared presentations and company tours.
Newly emerging ubiquitous technologies are now once again transforming the world industry and
society through u-Government services, u-commerce, and u-communities. Ubiquitous driven technologies provide opportunities for us to connect people with
intelligent devices at anytime and anywhere. It incites us to take off our imagination for designing a new promising future society in which human and
technologies are intertwined in harmony. We hope each nation and the whole world are able to find out breakthrough by the advantages of these u-driven
technologies. Unfortunately, it has become increasingly difficult for each nation to predict the direction and depth of changes in technology revolutions
without reference to other nations¡¯ policies and strategies. It is now the time to share our ideas and experiences for repositioning the status of u-driven
future with more innovative and visible goals, strategies, and solutions. Korea has constructed the leading information infrastructure in the world but need
to move to the next stage of u-Society embracing the change as well as alignment with the social needs. We hope that this international symposium will provide
a launching point for elevating the u-driven future with IT revolutions and opportunities grounded in coordinated efforts by government representatives,
research funding agencies, IT corporate vendors, and academic community. The symposium will serve as a platform for professionals around the world to discuss
revolutionary aspects of upcoming challenges concerning convergence of technology, society, culture, and governance.
We believe that recent IT revolutions set the ground for new paradigm of e-Government. Improved intelligence on digital infrastructure with enhanced mobility
encourages us to develop and create new visions for e-Government services. This event will be precious opportunity for both private and public institutions
from all over the world to share and promote new initiatives for e-Government services.
