Wireless Cities … Community Context Conference
October 6–7, 2005
Digital Technology Center
Walter Library
University of Minnesota
Minneapolis, Minnesota
The purpose of the conference is to provide a forum for the exchange of information and ideas on community-centered services delivered over municipal wireless networks.
Municipal wireless networks are being planned and implemented across the nation and the world. This conference will address the use of wireless networks to improve existing community services and innovate new collaborative content for local communities. It will act as a catalyst to engage government, industry and community organizations on how such content would impact public collaboration in the arts, humanities, journalism, education, social networks and other value-added community programming.
For additional information contact the conference administrator Alison Baerwald at wccc@dtc.umn.edu or 612-624-0811.
