The Principality of Asturias Government has committed with the Asturian society to lead a
strategic process to bring citizens, business or institutions the opportunity of taking part in the
new Information Society. Following this initiative, a new Strategic Plan e-Asturias 2007 was
developed, being the project "Digital Cities in Avilés and Carreño" part of this Plan.
Avilés - Digital City is managed by CTIC Foundation. This project aims to foster the
implementation and promotion of the Information Society in Avilés, through the creation of services
and infrastructures as a complement to the technological development of this municipality. Avilés
will be used as a model for the rest of the Asturian municipalities. This project will involve
citizens, regional and local administration, local business and the harbours of Avilés and Gijón.
