The
DIAS project
will contribute to the Information Society Technologies Programme (IST)
under the 5th Framework Programme of European Research, as a
demonstration project, creating an innovative platform and network
of European islands and isolated regions that will be built up using
the results of European R&D projects.
One of the main
objectives of the project is to exploit the research funded by the
EU for the benefit of the insular regions, unifying European effort
to help their development towards the information society.
DIAS aims to make a
significant contribution to the challenge of eEurope, and more
specifically to:
-
Share knowledge and
resources.

The creation of
effective collaboration tools at regional level (business,
administrations, R&D institutes, academia, SMEs, industry, service
providers, etc.) and between regions.
-
Facilitate
interaction between the administrations and between them and the
local agents and citizens.
-
Share efforts to
improve the local skills and the benefit for the people.
-
Provide better
access for all to useful services and applications.
