Over the past decade the world has become increasingly "hyperconnected." We live in an environment where the Internet and its associated services are accessible and immediate, where people and businesses can communicate with each other instantly, and where machines are equally interconnected with each other. The exponential growth of mobile devices, big data, and social media are all drivers of this process of hyperconnectivity. Consequently, we are beginning to see fundamental transformations in society. Hyperconnectivity is redefining relationships between individuals, consumers and enterprises, and citizens and the state. It is introducing new opportunities to increase productivity and well-being by redefining the way business is done, generating new products and services, and improving the way public services are delivered.

Although we still face serious challenges in 2012, the impact of information and communication technologies (ICT) on each industry has become more far reaching as its transformational effects spread to several sectors of the economy and society via innovations, the emergence of new industries, and the advent of the era of hyperconnectivity. We are convinced that in this new era of hyperconnectivity, ICT will begin a bold new chapter and will be closely linked to continued economic growth worldwide. More importantly, ICT will significantly reduce geographic or other limitations, allowing people around the globe to communicate and share information and ideas freely.
