As
a part of the IRFD Geneva 2003 Conference on the Information
Society, the Business Forum will bring together individuals
and groups from the entire spectrum of the business
community (corporate professionals, researchers, business
educators, policy analysts, NGOs). In recent years,
business partnership has become a vital component
of the global development discourse within the UN
policy framework. The upcoming World Summit on Information
Society, which will be held in Geneva, is not an exception,
and the business community is expected to play a continuous
key role in this process. To this effect the International
Research Foundation for Development is organizing
a special forum focusing on the business partnership
as an integral part of the global development in the
age of information society. |
