The conference, which is organised by DIGIT, was opened by Andrus Ansip, Vice-President of the European Commission. It featured a speech by Commissioner Günther H. Oettinger and contributions from Carlos Zorrinho and Michal Boni, both Members of the European Parliament.

In addition, speakers of ten EU Member States (BE, BG, DK, EE, ES, FR, IT, NL, PT and UK) presented measures that have considerably contributed to the modernisation of their public administrations.

The European Commission demonstrated how the solutions developed under the ISA programme, the ISA² programme and other Commission programmes can help public administrations in their cross-border and cross-sector cooperation and how businesses and citizens can profit from this.

About the event

The ISA² conference offers a forum for public administrations (senior policymakers as well as practitioners), the ICT community, business federations, NGOs and citizens to exchange views about upcoming trends in public sector modernisation. It also highlights the support that the ISA² programme can offer in this respect, through operational services and solutions in the area of cross-border public services.

The conference officially launched the ISA² programme, of which interoperability is at the core.
