Monday, September 13, 2010 - 09:00 until 17:00 Room 3

The Global Internet Governance Academic Network (GigaNet) is a scholarly community which aims: (i) to promote the development of Internet Governance as a recognized interdisciplinary field of study and (ii) to facilitate the informed dialogue on policy and issues in a multistakeholder approach.

To fulfill its goals, GigaNet has organized an annual research symposium since 2006. Held in conjunction with the Internet Governance Forum, it is an opportunity to showcase current research on Internet Governance from around the world and provides a venue for scholars to discuss and debate these crucial issues.

Prior successful symposia in Greece (2006), Brazil (2007), India (2008) and Egypt (2009) lead us to the Fifth GigaNet Symposium to be held in Vilnius, Lithuania, on September 13th, 2010 - one day before the IGF official opening, at LITEXPO. This year's Symposium is graciously sponsored in part by the MIT Press, with facilities provided by the IGF Secretariat.

@GigaNet: One government's opinion about Internet governance

One of the highlights of the GigaNet event in Washington yesterday was U.S. Assistant Secretary of Commerce Lawrence Strickling’s speech. Strickling’s comments were forthright, as usual, and clearly indicated the direction of U.S. policy on issues such as the IGF, ICANN and the IANA contract. They did not always advance convincing reasons for that direction, however.

IGF 2010 in Vilnius, Lithuania gets underway with Internet Society (ISOC), DiploFoundation, GigaNet and APC Events

Back in USSR … or so I might have thought. Quite the opposite actually.
IGF 2010 in Vilnius, Lithuania has gotten underway with a series of pre-activities at the stylish Litexpo venue – a bastion of “postmodern minimalism”.
The Baltic Republic of Lithuania has undergone a dramatic transformation over the last decade or thereabouts, and its most recent Soviet [...]
