Invitation to Attend SME Event - “ICT Issues for SMEs”

As small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) prepare to do business in the New Economy, they face the challenge of effectively and efficiently adopting Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to advance their businesses.

To help SMEs overcome this challenge, the APEC Digital Opportunity Center (ADOC) program in collaboration with DigitalFilipino.com and the Commission on Information and Communication Technology (CICT) will conduct a short program - ICT Issues for SMEs - on September 20, 2007 from 9 A.M. – 12:00 P.M. at the Mandarin Hotel, Makati, Manila.

Three guest speakers have been invited from Taiwan to give short presentations on how they are working with SMEs and assisting them with the various issues that relate to ICT for business. The short program aims to share some practical lessons and experiences that relate to the adoption and use of ICT by SMEs for business development.

We feel that it would be of benefit for your organization to attend and share in this learning experience. We therefore extend to you an invitation to send representatives from your organization to attend. Please let us know without delay (on or before Tuesday September 11, 2007) the name of your representatives wishing to attend.

Participants must inform us if they wish attend to secure a seat for the event.

Refreshments will served at the Mandarin Hotel, the event is open to all and free of charge.
