On Monday 18 April we will be holding an event at Keble College, Oxford to celebrate the launch of the W3C office for UK and Ireland.

This half-day seminar will officially launch Nominet as the host of the UK and Ireland W3C office. It will be an excellent opportunity to hear how business, academia and government can contribute and benefit from the emergence of new web technologies and the open standards that underpin them. The programme promises an exciting and interesting list of speakers from a variety of internet industries and backgrounds. Our keynote speaker is Sir Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web and Director of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
