Public lecture "On the Brink of a Networked Society"

Abstract:
In today's global world, connectivity to the network all the time and everywhere is taken for granted. Mobility supports interactions whenever desired, connecting everybody and everything. This enables people to collaborate, innovate, learn, participate in ways we never thought possible and leaves much more yet to discover. We are together building a Networked Society where every person and every industry is empowered to reach their full potential. In the Networked Society anything that can benefit from a connection will be connected. The success of the Networked Society will rest on our ability to bring together broadband, mobility, and cloud computing.
