Special Opportunities
Stockholm
Challenge Award
The Stockholm Challenge Award, pioneer among global
ICT competitions, has opened its 2006 edition. Innovative
teams from all over the world, who use ICT to improve living
conditions and economic growth, are now invited to register
their projects in the Challenge. Projects compete in six categories
and the winners will receive the prestigious Challenge trophies
at a beautiful event in the Stockholm City Hall, venue of
the Nobel Prize ceremonies. For more details, please visit their
Web

Hewlett-Packard Equipment Grants
Through their philanthropy and education program, Hewlett-Packard
provides grants of equipment to eligible organizations. Detailed
proposals are required for consideration within the grant
program. In addition, applicants must have other sources of
funding; HP will not be the sole source of funding to ensure
project independence. For more information, including a list
of featured grant programs, browse to Web
site.
Intel
Public Affairs International Contribution
The Intel Corporation makes grants to eligible organizations
in the communities where the company has a major presence.
The company focuses primarily on education, through grants
for programs that advance science, math and technology learning.
Environmental programs are also strongly considered, with
particular emphasis on technological components. Intel will
support additional programs that improve the quality of life
in its site communities. These requests will be evaluated
on the basis of the services offered and the program's impact
on the community. Cost-effectiveness of the program, its ability
to be effectively measured and replicated, and the potential
for Intel employee involvement are also significant factors.
Countries eligible for Intel grants include China, Costa Rica,
India, Ireland, Israel, Malaysia, and the Philippines. For

The previous way of doing business was the misinformation economy. Business people protected their interests by controlling access to information. The Internet will make that almost impossible in today's markets.
