The annual Top Concerns survey is a regular feature of COMMON Europe. In addition to the "on the spot" survey conducted during the opening session of Common Europe Congress to be held in Krakow from 6 to 9 June 2009, we are addressing all Power and other Systems community through the web
in order to know their challenges for the coming years
.
An iPod nano will be sent to a web winner each from North America, Europe, Australasia and Japan whose form will be chosen by an innocent delegate volunteer - along with 3 other similar prizes awarded for the "on the spot" survey respondents.
We request you to rate the 16 concerns presented on the next page. A statistical analysis will rank the top 10 chosen by web participants and the CEC attendees. The results will be announced during the closing session of CEC on 9 June, 2009.
