The EPSRC-funded Digital Economies Research Cluster, “Opportunities and Challenges in the Digital Economy: an Agenda for the Next-Generation Internet” announces an open forum to shape the direction of research into the digital economy in the UK. This will be a national event which will bring together experts from across the UK in conversation with the general public. We welcome a broad range of views from everyone interested in the future of the Internet and the digital economy.
The forum will feature an open panel discussion with cluster researchers and industry leaders, moderated by Gareth Mitchell (Digital Planet-BBC World Service).
Topics will include:
• Next-generation Healthcare
• e-Government
• Digital Entrepreneurship
• The Mobile Economy
• Trust, Data and Security
• e-Society and the future of social networks
Our discussions will contribute to setting the national funding council priorities for future research.
