Subject: Journee bruxelloise d'information sur le programme TEN-Telecom


On 20 March 2000 Commissioner Erkki Liikanen will speak at the opening of the
TEN-Telecom Information Day which will take place in Brussels at the
Charlemagne
Building, Rue de la Loi 170- Room S3  (9:00 to 16:30). You are invited to
participate in this event.

The Community action in favour of TEN-Telecom aims at stimulating the
deployment
of telecommunication networks-based applications and generic services in areas
of public interest. On the basis of the updated TEN-Telecom Work programme,
the
European Commission intends to launch a call for proposals at beginning March
2000.
The call for applications and generic services covers the projects of common
interest in the sectors of: generic services, education and training,
access to
Europe's cultural heritage, small and medium sized enterprises, transport and
mobility, environment and emergency management, health, city and regional
information networks. The indicative budget envelope is set at 43 MEUR.
In addition, the rolling call for support and co-ordination measures remains
open for project proposals (indicative budget envelope 900 KEUR). The call
text  and the guide for proposers will be available on the TEN-telecom website
from the date of publication in the Official Journal.
A draft agenda for the information day is attached. The morning session covers
the general aspects of the calls. In the afternoon, Programme officials
will be
available to respond to individual inquiries. You can reserve a 15 minute
meeting according to your sector of interest.  Notice boards and display space
for any information you wish to bring will be available.
Please note that space is limited; seats and time-slots for the afternoon
meetings will be available on a first-come basis. Therefore register as
soon as
possible through our website at http://www.ispo.cec.be/tentelecom. You need
the
printout of your on-line confirmation to gain access to the Charlemagne

I thank you for your interest and look forward to meeting you in Brussels.
