Business team approach proposed for Canadian e-commerce effort

2001-06-05

Canadian experts in electronic commerce have proposed the establishment of a business team that will examine current standardization issues and develop recommendations for action by stakeholders.

The proposal comes as a result of the first Joint Open Forum on Standardization Enablement in Electronic Commerce. Sponsored by the Standards Council, the Information Technology Association of Canada (ITAC), Industry Canada and the Telecommunications Standards Advisory Council of Canada (TSACC), the forum brought together more than a hundred participants to discuss needs and issues related to standardization in electronic commerce, both in Canada and internationally.

For more on the forum, including copies of speeches and papers and the chair's final report, please visit TSACC's Open Forum pages.
