MITIP2009 – a conference worth considering

mitip2009The purpose of the Modern Information Technology in the Innovation Processes of the Industrial Enterprises conference is  to serve as a forum for the dissemination of ideas, knowledge and experiences about the ICT-driven innovation in industrial products, processes and services. The conference is targeted to scholars and practitioners involved in research activities focusing on the role of ICT in modern industrial enterprises, and it particularly focuses on the exchange of ideas between Eastern and Western Europe. Having recently been asked by Roberto Pinto, who also runs riskcentral.org,  to join the scientific committee for the conference, I feel obliged to advertise this conference.
