Aim
The Irish Internet Association Web Development Working Group seeks to support businesses in the development and implementation of web applications and sites to help them do business online in Ireland. It also hopes to advise Irish businesses on best practice in web development, security and data protection. The group aims to educate decision makers on the web development process.
How Will This Be Achieved
By bringing together expert practitioners and business leaders in a collaborative forum, developing white-papers that encourage best practice and give guidance on achieving sustainable and realistic goals. The group will highlight best practice case-studies in the Irish marketplace and beyond.
The group will also organise workshop events open to all IIA members and non-members to facilitate sharing and discussing insights and developments in the web development and web application fields.
Membership
It is intended that membership of the working group be split evenly between expert practitioners and business leaders (e.g. CTOs) from a variety of business sectors, including the finance, public sector, SME, tourism, media, technology and not-for-profit sectors. This will allow input from all stakeholders on issues pertaining to this area.
The Group will meet 2 to 3 times a year and will primarily work using Basecamp - an online collaboration tool from 37signals.com and SocialText. The number of members will be kept to 10 and if required the working group will be split into subgroups to work on specific tasks.
The group will be chaired by Eamon Leonard, Managing Director, echolibre.
