7. MISSION:
Gathering the (global) experts, to predict, plan for, and shape the future of the Digital Information Society
Providing the opportunity for discussions, in order to encourage the worldwide deployment of IPv Topics include:
emerging technologies, legacy networks,
convergence, interoperability, regulation,
standards,applications, services, business practices, …
Results and recommendations to be reported back to Spanish Presidency next year.

31. CONCLUSION
In Europe, the shortage of addresses is not yet a problem for current networks, it will become one with wireless deployment or new applications deployment
ISPs need first to increase their profit and gain market shares. Investments has to be preserved!
So, the best solution is to deploy IPv6 at the border of the networks, with value added services.
We are marketing new services, new applications, new network use!
