The World Tech Jam will kick off WCIT 2012, with thousands of online contributors collaborating and sharing their ideas, their passion, and their insights into the creation of a Global Digital Agenda. 

During this large-scale digital brainstorming, IBM & WCIT 2012 will solicit specific ideas and capture the pulse of IT users and stakeholders in connection with five critical sectors of digital society:

• Collaborative Healthcare
• Closing the Global Skills Gap
• Smart Cities and Transportation
• Energy, the Environment and Sustainability
• Media, Arts and Culture in the Digital Age

The results of the Jam will be used to:

• create the Global Digital Society Action Plan: a digital agenda that will help to maximize the many benefits that digital technologies can unlock across diverse sectors and institutions;
• influence the Program for the WCIT 2012 Congress in October.

Let’s marshal our human skill, ingenuity and intelligence in order to address some of the most urgent challenges facing our world.
