2. To reflect, analyse and debate by sectors the current situation in art and new media to gain a better understanding of its different realities and necessities.
3. To present proposals that will energise and improve the relationship between the different sectors in order to stimulate and promote Spanish digital art both nationally and internationally.
4. To favour the presentation of proposals related to the opportunity and need to create an “Institute of Digital Arts”, how it may be organised, its functions, objectives and its relationship with other Institutes and international institutions.
5. To optimise the creation of more Centres of Production and Research in collaboration with institutions and the private sector for the development of an innovative industrial and economic infrastructure.
6. The presentation of the book Art Tech Media 06, of selected lectures and communiqués as well as a survey made among various sectors related to digital art.
