AmCham China's Information & Communications Technology (ICT) Forum and the US Information Technology Office (USITO) are pleased to invite you to the next briefing in their ongoing breakfast series, this time featuring Charles M. Firestone, executive director of the Aspen Institute Communications and Society Program, and Reed Hundt, chair of the Aspen Institute IDEA (International Digital Economy Accords) Project.
The Internet is the most robust medium of information exchange in history. Barring technological and cultural disruptions, the world's populace will soon be on a single common digital platform. This global medium can promote personal well-being, economic growth and beneficial social change.
With over half billion people connected, the Internet is exploding in China. At the same time China is seeking a far more significant role in global Internet governance. How does the perspective of the Internet as a common communications medium fit in China's situation? How should China view the ongoing debate in the West of a multi-stakeholder approach to Internet governance?
