TechAction Town Hall Mayors' Panel hosted by Bob Chiarelli,
Mayor of Ottawa
 At
this year's Smart City Summit, CATA is bringing together federal
Ministers Allan Rock and Rey Pagtakhan, and the Mayors of
the most advanced high-tech cities in Canada. The Mayors will
form a "power panel", which will present the results of their
cities' "TechAction Town Hall Meetings" - the series of executive
gatherings organized by CATA in conjunction with KPMG and
Industry Canada. The TechAction Town Hall Meetings have produced
a blueprint for each city, on how to accelerate the adoption
of high technology and innovation. These Action Plans will
be melded together, according to a nation-wide Ipsos Survey
template, to create "Canada's Advanced Technology Business
Plan". Audience participation in the form of interactive voting,
on-the-spot decision-taking, and a respected Moderator make
it an ideal tool to help the Government harness the power
of the industrial economy.
Tickets are $100 plus GST (corporate tables of 10 are $1000
plus GST).
