The event marked the publication of the World's Most Effective Policies for the e-Economy Report, which assesses the performance across the e-agenda of nine countries - Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Sweden, the UK and the United States.

The event also saw the publication of the UK online Annual Report setting out the Government's e-strategy for the coming year.
