Moving forward

Thanks to everyone for the energy you brought along to Mondays workshop, I hope it opened your eyes to some of the opportunities new technology provides for your businesses. I’m very conscious of the fact that the workshop was just the beginning of a long process and that we need to get some immediate results to keep building the momentum.

I’ll be scheduling meetings with the teams at each of the connected sites next week, to present and discuss the brainstormed ideas and fill in any background information you require. Neil and I will work through some of the ‘inter-site’ possibilities with Rebecca once she’s on board.

I’ll also be working to remove some of the obstacles we still have in our way – ie internet site blocking, slow internal networks and poor connections at our other sites.

There’s a lot of excitement out in the ICT community around what we’re doing (eg fruitbowl), so there are definitely opportunities for public/private partnerships to move things along quickly.

I’ll soon be entering Monday’s ideas on this site and providing links to some of the technologies presented.
