VIEWPOINT

Public attention in Europe in the area of economic policy has focused largely on the financial credit squeeze, global warming, and energy. Whilst concern with these issues is appropriate it is also the case that the European I(T (computers, telecommunications, the Internet and media) sector has not received the attention it deserves. This is short-sighted since the European ICT sector is the most important contributor to economic and social performance. It also makes a key contribution through innovation to environmental improvement.
