Title of the presentation: Key success factors for cross border e-government systems
Abstract: The European Union is successfully implementing cross-border IT systems for its institutions and for the Member States. One of the best examples of such systems are Schengen Information System and Visa Information System.
IBM has been supporting a number of governments in the UE sharing its experience from one EU country to another and implementing a truly cross-border system of systems. Building on this experience provides solid ground for similar cross-border system of eGovernment services delivered by EU institutions and the government to the Citizens of European Union.
