    Prepared by the ICC commission on : Digital Economy
    Publication date : 23/09/2010

    The short term potential of the cloud may be overestimated while its long term implications are underestimated. An explosion of cloud use and services is to be expected.

    There is a call to harmonise what is existing – in terms of regulations – then consider adjustments. It was noted that opportunities are more seen in using and contributing to the cloud than providing the cloud. Mr Heitmann added that the discussions in this session served to highlight the value of multistakeholder exchanges on these topics and the potential for them to enrich decisionmaking and stimulate innovative ideas.
