With the launching of Action 2000 and the involvement of more politicians higher up the hierarchy, we now see that the Millennium Issue is getting much more attention. John Ivinson will describe the current thinking and plans behind Action 2000. He will also draw on other issues of concern which are beginning to emerge such as embedded systems, skills shortages, stockpiling and the role of the small/medium enterprise in the supply chain. One of the other major projects facing the IT professional is the advent of EMU and the introduction of the euro. What impact is that having on the priorities in front of the average IT manager?
