BUILDING THE NATIONAL CAPACITY INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT The implementation of the Strategic objectives to bring about the Information Society and Economy in Grenada will require the collective efforts of the Public and Private Sectors. This public-private partnership is necessary to implement e-Government, e-Commerce, and to build the national capacities in information, knowledge, skills and the utilization of digital technologies. The Government will stimulate the development of the Information Society and the Information Economy by providing the regulatory, financial and institutional infrastructure necessary for the creation of the ideal environment, which will in turn bring about the proliferation of electronic interaction. It will encourage the private sector to develop the technical infrastructure at a national and at a micro levels and to develop and adopt e-Commerce solutions. The Private Sector will also have the opportunity to participate actively in several national capacity-building exercises. THE PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE: Government's strategy will be to enable a physical infrastructure architecture encompassing all attributes, and criteria that will allow ICT to be the medium through which Grenada will become a knowledge-based society in the Knowledge enhancement decade. In that regard, it will promote a high quality and affordable Telecommunication Infrastructure. 18 A STRATEGY AND ACTION PLAN FOR GRENADA Anurag Sinha
