Working Premise

• The original definition of the NII (that became
  the GII)
• Facilities and services that enable the
  efficient creation and diffusion of meaningful
  information

Meaningful Information Knowledge Creation and
Diffusion Innovation Facilities and
Services Network
Therefore, 1. The NII/GII was NOT about
information as much as knowledge. 2. The NII/GII
was about the process of innovation - the
creation of knowledge and the movement
to the point of business opportunity
and/or the point of need, such as resolving
societal problems. 3. The NII/GII was NOT about
technology as much as networks and
networking both human and technical.
