FINALISTS FOR WORLD SUMMIT AWARDS PUBLISHED
Organizers of the World Summit Awards, an international competition
celebrating creative digital content products from around the world, have
published the awards finalists on their website. Over 800 products from more
than 130 countries were nominated for the award, which were reviewed by an
international jury in Dubai last month. For each of the eight categories
(e-learning, e-culture, e-government, e-entertainment, e-science, e-health,
e-business and e-inclusion), jurors selected five finalists, totaling 40
projects in all. The finalists will be showcased at a special event at the
World Summit on the Information Society in Geneva. Among the projects
selected: the Splendid Chinese Culture portal (http://chiculture.net),
Tropical America (http://www.tropicalamerica.com), Public Library of Science
(http://www.plos.org), Romania's e-government portal
(http://www.e-guvernare.ro), Living Heritage
(http://www.livingheritage.org.nz), WougNet (http://www.wougnet.org) and
Time to Market (http://www.manobi.net). Additionally, other nominees will be
selected to participate in a showcase in which digital content is organized
by geographic region.
