The year 2005 was declared the year of innovation and competitively

The first months of the year made theirs debut under the impact (created) made by the campaign for the promote of the gratuitous consulting of SES-Germany and the gratuitous services of IRC-Innovation Relay Center. Also, there has obtained progresses in the implementation of virtual mechanisms for the warehouses of knowledge (Knowledge Warehouse) and the territorial marketing proposed by the Lyrical project of European Committee. Through these new e/m-tools, there are continuing the width, the visibility, the transparence and the accessibility on The First Electronic Market Transilvania http://v-market.ro, which incorporates two virtual mechanisms already devoted: the Electronic Exchange http://e-bursa.ro and the Virtual Business Centre http://e-cat.ro.

In the year 2005 CAT will continue to fortify the swicheble bundle between the business-competitively activities and the concerns for the telematization of the education-research-innovation DIGIeducation-SMARTeducation-EDUtainment (education-games-entertainment) or digitization of the art-culture-patrimony DIGIcult-InnovationCULT-CULTainment (culture-multimedia-entertainment). The application area will be spread to eHealth too - the intelligent medicine to distance: telemedicine, teleconsulting, telediagnosis, telemonitoring, telesurveillance, telemergency. More, for the Transilvania Fashion program and its new project Maramures Fashion, we will look for co-operation with the european partners and all over the world for the development of our new draft: New DiGiFashion-eHealth Fashion, applied in Intelligent BioMedical Clothing. Design-4-All, Design-4-Effectiveness-and-Enjoinment/Entertaiment, Interaction Design, Ambient Intelligence, Sensitive MutiModal Interfaces, Virtual Prototype, nanoBio-Touch-and-Sensitive Design, m3D … are the new directions and concerns of the year 2005.

Further on, we will insist for the site's creation of the presentation of the CAT concerns, the design of the virtual E_SHOP shops/en-gros and the introduction of web-mails, of digital video/web studio, of the passing applications from the e-banking to the Internet banking, as well as from the e-commerce to the m-BIZ (mobile business). This infrastructure combined with the new generation of mobiles equipment constitutes the support of the development of the m-business concept of our concerns and their cross-over from the physical-statistic status to the one of mobile-virtual. The classical "management-by-presence/face-to-face" management style will be improved through the adoption of a "pliant management" organized by the each m-boss (mobile boss), leading "wherever-and-whenever", pliant and mobile underlings, using the new IT&C.ON-DEMAND BUSINESS will represent a new challenge of the year 2005.

The fast application of the m2m (Mobile-2-Mobile) technologies at our firms will be done by using: mK-4-mB&E (mobile knowledge-for-mobile business and entertainment) and standardized and personalized mBIZ platforms.

We will, further on, dwell upon the mobile lifestyle, the one of the flexibile-teleworking/e-working work and the new bureaucratic technologies for increasing: comfort, flexibility, autonomy, decentralization, debirocracy, delocalization, dematerialization. Through this we will contribute to the diminution of the stress caused by the immobile offices, of the inter-personal conflicts, the remittance and the lack of creativity or staff-innovation. We will create a new physical and virtual environment, we will re-energize the staff and we will improve the productivity and quality of the products and of life .The "work-when-you-want-and-where-you-want" concept stands as a basic in the pliant organization of the company which keeps winning more and more ground in the new digital contemporary economy.

In the advanced countries, the Industrial Society of the XX century left more and more space to the new Informational Society-Knowledge Society For All. The fast achievement of this desideratum is at the top of the European Commission and it especially concerns the e-Europe and the e-Europe+ for the integration in the Enlarged European Union. As a priority CAT will promote technologies which concern the Wireless Information Society-WIS and the Mobile Informational Society in a GLOBAL WORLD. In 2005, we will focus upon the development of intellectual property, of the digital capital, the untouchable goods, the creation of values added in the new sections of the Knowledge Economic and especially mKB-Mobile Knowledge Business. We will continue the development of our mKM-Mobile Knowledge Management concept and its expansion from the "Babes-Bolyai" University to other foreign and transilvanian universities. We will provide the Cultural Management masterates with content, by delivering the Project Cycle Management course-and-seminar.
