Context:
Além de conectar os órgãos municipais, o secretário procura formas de facilitar o acesso da população à internet. Projetos não faltam. O primeiro a sair do papel provavelmente será o “Praça Digital”, cujo objetivo é instalar módulos em espaços públicos de áreas de baixo IDH. “Em dois meses, o projeto piloto deve estar funcionando”, prevê Andrade.

Law: Straight off the drawing board
Roger Trapp on the benefits of the fast-track patent scheme
Nick Sills is marketing an innovative underwater excavation machine less than a year after he applied to patent it. Normally, he would have had to wait three to four years before making such a move, but Mr Sills was one of the early users of a scheme designed to cut through the tortuous procedures of patent application.
