Partners Impressions

Bangladesh
In a country like Bangladesh not everything can be planned long term. Amazing how the WSA expert network reacted on such a short notice and how people found time and energy to fly over and be there for almost 10 days. The event had a significant impact on the ICT development in Bangladesh, especially of value for the SME?s, which rarely get such an opportunity for demonstrating what they do, exchanging practical experiences and learning directly from concrete examples from all over the world...
MD. Akteruzzaman, President, Bangladesh Multimedia Association (BMA)

Germany
Held within the framework of the 7th UN ICT Task Force Meeting in Berlin, the WSA exhibition was an unusual and unique addition to the event: what has been discussed and worked on in the plenary rooms, has been here demonstrated on concrete examples from different countries. This was very useful and important.
Alexander Felsenberg, Founder & Member of the Board of the German Digital Economy Association BVDW e.V.

Bahrain
Great partnership since three years and hopefully for the years coming! Here is the story: Bahrain started by winning one of the WSA categories in 2003. Then conducted a WSA Global Summit in 2004. And finally ended up being the host of the WSA 2005 Grand Jury. What more can be said?
Abdulla al Hamid, Head of e-Commerce, Ministry of Commerce

Hong Kong
We were proud to be the first country to hold a WSA event of a global scale — the Global ICT Summit 2004. It was a great opportunity to demonstrate China’s dynamic capabilities in the advancement of ICTs, establish new relationships on the highest governmental level and also to demonstrate the unique role of Hong Kong as a business gateway to China.
Elisabeth Quat, President and Co-founder of Internet Professionals Association, Hong Kong

Sudan
The Sudan Road Show was a memorable joint celebration. We brought WSA with an exhibition, lectures and speeches to five national universities and colleges. All products were installed on 200 computers in lecture rooms and libraries. As a result we could work on and finally implement new curricula in universities, based on WSA quality criteria and the input provided in the framework of discussions and workshops.
Izzeldin Osman, President, Sudan University of Science and Technolgy
