Support Opportunities

ICT Forum Wales is the biennial festival of technology-focussed events developed by ITWales, in partnership with both public and private sector organisations.  The two-week long pan Wales programme has a tradition of demonstrating the key role technology has to play in driving forward business development, economic growth and community regeneration.  The events provide a platform for business, community and education to come together to stimulate innovation Information Communication Technology.


support opportunitiesIn November 2000 ITWales held the first "ICT Week" in Swansea - 7 events for business and academia, incorporating 15 speakers.  By 2005 the programme had grown substantially and during the 2 week period delivered 23 individual events at locations across the Objective 1 areas of Wales from Bridgend to Pembrokeshire in the South through to Bangor in the North.  These events were supported by 30 organisations and involved 70 speakers from business and industry across Wales and the UK.

 

This year from 12-23 November, ITWales will be running ICT Forum Wales 2007.  The events aim to further embed technology into Welsh business, schools and community environments through a mix of keynote presentations, seminars, workshops and masterclasses delivered by leading developers and practitioners.  The programme offers something for everyone; whether you are interested in existing or emerging technologies, have concerns about skills or security, or need to know how to manage or market your business more effectively.

 

To support the programme, we have put together a comprehensive PR and marketing plan to ensure that ICT Forum Wales maintains a high profile and maximum visibility amongst our target audiences.  ITWales is confident that this initiative will not only deliver immediate business benefits but will also ensure that Wales is a step closer to achieving a higher status in the global technology marketplace.
