the first thing that places seeking economic development need
to do:
Locales seeking
economic
development need to be able to act to satisfy the needs of
prospects. The
first thing that the typical enterprise
developer or site
selector wants is data that can be converted
to useful information.Location
data and other information that can be
used for enterprise
and economic development may be distributed by area
and local development contacts as well as other members of ally
network. The Network you are using is an ally of places throughout
the world seeking economic development. It has three
websites working for
them. One of the
first things that places that want economic
development need to do is to be
sure that they are not left out of The
Network. One of the first things that location
data suppliers need to do
is be sure that they are listed in the Global
Registry of Contacts.

Markle Foundation:
In June 2001 Markle released information about a
study on governing the Internet. Research behind the study found
that 45% of people surveyed identified the Internet as a library. This
prompted The Network to turn to public
libraries online as resource
providers in cases where local
development representatives were unavailable. Libraries
of colleges and universities as well as in many places have
proven to be excellent sources of location
information and economic
development data.
