Several panel discussions will offer perspectives of technology leaders and providers of services and infrastructure in the region. The CITEL Assembly will adopt a declaration articulating the region’s goals and mandates in telecommunications as well as the CITEL Strategic Plan 2006-2010.
Among those who will participate in the opening session are Costa Rica’s President Abel Pacheco; OAS Assistant Secretary General Ambassador Albert R.
