Microsoft previewed its third annual Government Leaders Forum Monday by indicating it will promote strategies and solutions designed to reduce governmental red tape when the meeting gets underway Wednesday in Portugal.
In its announcement, Microsoft cited its Microsoft Connected Government Framework, which consists largely of training and educational solutions developed for government officials.
"Governments around the world tell us that to interoperate effectively they need a more structured approach to building information technology systems," said Bill Gates, Microsoft's chairman and chief software architect, in a statement.
