The Internet as Public Good Symposium focuses on the ideas of the Net:
- as a public good
- for the public good; and
- as a tool to foster the creation and distribution of public goods.
Through the symposium, we work to improve the understanding of the meaning of the Net in our near-global society and to use this knowledge to help further the our individual work and group efforts.
Visit the Schedule to get an overview of the discussion topics.
The symposium will be held on the Harvard Business School campus in Boston, MA, USA, on July 30-31, 2007.
During the symposium, we will publish synopses and notes of the various discussions and breakout groups. After the symposium, we hope to distributed recordings of the discussion groups (but not the breakout sessions.)
