During a daylong meeting, practitioners will discuss issues such as the challenges of implementing and managing e-government solutions, the acceptance of e-government by  government agencies and citizens, case  studies of successes and lessons  learned,  e-government in developing  economies, and where they see  e-government going in the future from  the perspectives of their  localities. Citizens who have themselves used ICTs to influence government will also provide their experiences and perspectives on the usefulness of ICTs and their idea of e-government in the future. Attendees will participate in discussion and workshop sessions to identify common issues and opportunities for research-practice collaborations.


The symposium complements the paper sessions of the HICSS E-Government Track.

The e-Government Symposium is a highly interactive setting in which researchers, educators, policy makers, developers, citizens, and practitioners can discuss issues and find common ground. E-government transforms relationships among multiple stakeholders, addressing the continuing challenges of enhancing participation, being responsive and aware of citizens' concerns, keeping up with new technologies, and supporting economic and political wellbeing.
