Minister Nazif presented Egypt's Information Society Initiative emphasizing its twin objective of building both an information society and a vibrant local ICT industry that fosters export growth. The Minister stressed that for an information society to take root; individuals must enjoy equal access to benefits of technology and share an understanding of its power to transform their social and professional lives. A bouquet of national initiatives implemented over the past four years emphasizing public-private partnership met those objectives that yielded great success.
