Corporate Real Estate in an e-Business World is the one of the themes on the agenda of the Florida World Congress of the International Development Research Council (IDRC), scheduled for November 4-8 in Orlando, Florida. Precisely what does the ubiquitous e- as a prefix mean? These definitions are offered in the IDRC Web Site.
e-Revolution: Refers to the overwhelming velocity of change that has accelerated beyond predictions of third-wave information revolution futurists; and represents how fast virtual business transactions and decision-making are driving new business rules.
e-Commerce: Real-time buying and selling transactions on the Internet.
e-Business: The infrastructure supported by integrated communication and knowledge tools that speeds business decisions, blurs provider-user-client relationships and redefines the business of the business.
