GCC E-Government and Telecom Forum: Strategic Context  

Various GCC e-government organizations and their various initiatives are
offered an excellent platform to share and learn on the best practices in
e-government implementation and business process reengineering and
management. The use of new technologies for government information
provision,service delivery and administration has the potential to transform
government. This transformation will improve the lives of all citizens. 

The government has an important leadership role in enhancing the extent to
which businesses and the community takes full advantage of the opportunities
provided by the information economy. It is doing this by maximizing the
opportunities provided by technology to help transform government
activities.  This transformation to e-government  has a significant
‘demonstrator’ and ‘pull-through’ effect on
region&#821s information economy.
