About Great

Great or Göteborg Region Easy Access Technology was formed in the year 2004.
It was an initiative in order to develop the IT-infrastructure in the Gothenburg region. And also to inform about the existing possibilities in communication.
 
The background was an investigation done by Finance Centre of Gothenburg about the IT-infrastructure in Gothenburg compared to other regions. The conclusion was that the infrastructure was very good, but that there was a lack of information about this.  In order to maintain the infrastructure, there was thus a need for a better focus in this area.
 
In order to
  • stimulate the development of the region in general
  • to fulfill the mission of maintaining Gothenburg as a leading region within IT
  • and to give more content to the brand of Gothenburg
the association GREAT was formed.
Originally with BRG, (Business Region Gothenburg) as main sponsor.
 
Activities during 2005-07 have been
  • to increase the number of members and interested parties
  • to inform all involved and the public through a website and press
  • arrange seminars about IT-infrastructure, such as IT in Logistics, TV through broadband, wireless broadband, etc.
  • Investigate and inform about the IT-infrastructure in the region; compared over time and with other regions both in Sweden and abroad.
