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.
During this first edition of the symposium, the participants will discuss how the public good aspects of the Net relate to civil society, commerce, culture, government, science and technology.
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.
The symposium will be held on the Harvard Business School campus in Boston, MA, USA, on July 30-31, 2007.
