Prosperity For Both the Netizens and Non Netizens” The target includes the common man, the Business and the
Government Focus of activity will be Netizens.
– It is however recognized that those who do not use Computers will still be affected by the policies and functioning of the Net Centric world to which the current world is transforming, and hence CySi will work for the progress and prosperity of the Non Netizens also through the activities in the Netizen’s world.

Vision..1
Netizen's World to be the driving force in leading India to the top echelons of Global Economic Power
Economic Power has traditionally been determined with
– Money Power– Military Power
We need to change the equation with a superior– Technology Power
5
Vision..2
The traditional physical world is built on the principles of physical boundaries, further divided with religion, caste, creed, sex etc.
The Netizen's World was born as a society without these boundaries.
– Though it is unlikely to remain so for long. Since Regulation is Essential to Development, there
is a need for – Self Regulation by the Society– Development Oriented Regulation
6
Vision..3
Netizen's World has achieved a lot– But Needs to achieve Even More
There is still need to work for bringing more Netizen Centric Services both in Business and in E-Governance
7
Why Prosperity for Netizens is the Key?
E-Economy is an important element of overall economic development
– A Vibrant E-Economy leads to a prosperous Non E-Economy and together a prosperous Digital Economy
Strategically, E-Economy may be a faster means of growth for India
Ultimately Every Citizen will be a Netizen directly or indirectly
– Prosperity for the Netizens therefore means Prosperity for All.

The Emerging Need
Conceptually, Digital Economy in India became visible around 1997 with the Internet becoming available to public
Legally, Digital Economy became a reality in India in 2000 with the passage of ITA-2000 digital contracts possible
The Recasting of the Global I-Governance system with the ICANN giving way to a new system under WSIS is on the horizon.
– If India has to remain in the map of the Digital World, a focused approach to the needs of Netizen's World is essential
Ten Point Agenda of the MCIT has recognized this need and adopted “Cyber Connectivity For All” as one of its objectives.

The Open Space
So far, Nasscom, MAIT and Computer Society of India have been addressing the issues regarding the Computer Industry..both Software and Hardware
CII, ASSOCHAM,FICCI were born with different perspectives
– The Concept of Netizen however is a recent development– Though there is an attempt to address the issues
concerning IT industry as part of the activities of these associations, a Distinct Focus with a separate entity could be a better way of doing things
