Shaping the ICT agenda:
During September and October 2008 the European Commission conducted an online public consultation on "Shaping the ICT research and innovation agenda for the next decade". The final report of this consultation has now been published (http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/newsroom/cf/itemdetail.cfm?item_id=4742&utm_campaign=isp&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=newsroom&utm_content=tpa-7).

The report is based on 565 contributions, which will be used in preparing for a Communication from the European Commission on "A strategy for ICT R&D and Innovation in Europe", planned to be launched this spring.
