• Initiate seminar series, invited talks, and other regular activities. These activities should be carried out not only by national experts in industry and academia, but also by authorities from other European countries.
• Define working groups and national Strategic Research Agendas. This activity will help to structure and organise national initiatives in the area of ICT and services.
• Establish closer ties with ETP's, specifically NESSI, its board, steering committee and working groups.
• Promote new directions for national governments and national strategies, in order to exploit synergies and reach critical mass.
