Chair's Message
The success of the first Kaleidoscope event in 2008 and the quality of contributions in 2009 demonstrates a real need for this type of outreach by ITU to the academic community. I am very pleased, and proud, to see that the Kaleidoscope events look set to become an important event on the academic calendar and the ITU calendar.
