In offering total solutions for specific applications, the challenge lies not only in technology packaging but also in management processes and business relationships. While the business model of the networked economy and communities has yet to be fully understood, we are certain that technology advancement is the driver of this change. As research initiatives, all application programmes are designed to explore two dimensions of development i.e. technology solutions, and business and management models. These dimensions of development are based on an understanding of the community and a contextualisation of the product. The community becomes a generator of ideas, a testbed for solutions and proof of the solutions' effectiveness.
Application development encourages a reinvention of the market and a re-packaging of the product.
In essence, it is about contextualising content and technology for community advancement. With our technology solutions, we aim to develop, facilitate and expand the use of ICT for secure and effective digital and enterprise management. Today, one of the major implications of ICT-enabled business lies in the way it is organised. We no longer compete on products but on business models of the web enterprise. The networked technology of today challenges existing industrial development and provides the opportunity of realignment for global competition.
