to meet and talk again

It was Helen Keller who said that we can do anything we want as long as we stick to it long enough.

With this in mind as we advocate for information and communications technology development, Cagayan de Oro Chamber of Commerce & Industry Foundation, Inc. (Oro Chamber) stages the 2nd Northern Mindanao Business Summit on ICT on 22 June 2007 08:00am to 05:00pm at the Grand City Hotel, Cagayan de Oro City.

Celebrating the National ICT Month of June, and fresh from the successful hosting by our region of the 5th Mindanao ICT Congress last September, we are calling this event in order to take further steps in our preparation of Northern Mindanao business players for the opportunities brought by information and communications technology.

During this 2nd NMBS-ICT, we shall meet new and emerging partners, listen to reports of ICT leaders in business and government, get updates on the action plans created in June 2006 from the local ICT groups within the region, and together continue and strengthen our course of actions to make ICT one of our strategies for Northern Mindanao’s economic growth.

In partnership with the Regional Information Technology & E-Commerce Committee (RITECC) of Northern Mindanao, we shall also use this event for ICT industry players to meet with enabling partners from government. The event aims to gather 200 participants from all over the region and identify new directions for possible policy interventions.

We recognize your role in the attainment of ICT development in the region – as partners, users and advocates alike. As together we stake our claim to the opportunities offered by the industry, we are therefore inviting you to join us in this event.

Be a part of our goal of “Strengthening and Expanding the Mindanao ICT Industry”.
