14th Nov 2001	The Future of e-business:   - Real life after the dotcom crash
Speaker	Professor Jim Norton - IoD eCommerce
Summary	Prof. Norton will reflect on the underlying exponential growth in capability in computing, wireline communications and mobile communications which underpins e-business opportunities.
Feedback
Prof  Norton	Jim Norton will examine the lessons to be learnt from the 'dotcom bubble' and will suggest that, despite the current poor sentiment, the business to consumer (b2c) market will offer profitable opportunities in the future.  He will also suggest that a savage shakeout is inevitable in business to business (b2b) markets as weak business models are supplanted by those which truly create value.  Jim will assess the likely impact of mobile technologies for delivering e-business services and will close by assessing the realistic opportunities for pervasive broadband access in the UK. Jim led the team which produced the Government's blueprint for the development of e-business "e-business@its.best.uk", published by the Prime Minister in September 1999.  His current roles include chairmanship of the 'Research' group of the Government's Broadband Stakeholders' Forum and adviser to Scottish Ministers on their 'Digital Scotland' programme.  This event provides an opportunity to question Jim on the prospects for e-business and e-Government in the UK. There will be an opportunity for questions.
