The Town and Talent Project aims to introduce information network technology to villages still dwelling in the agricultural society. This will develop a local knowledge-based economy, thus congregating people from far-flung villages in central locations. By developing the service industry, these rural villages will make the leap into Internet Villages. This project is primarily based on member school participation in numerous regions. Member schools will be able to use computers and Internet resources to increase their rate of students testing into higher education. In order to foster 21rst century employment skills, students must actively increase their software, English, and typing abilities.The immediate goal is to put local information on the Internet.The ultimate goal of the Town and Talent Project is to elevate the level of knowledge, income and standard of living in the west to match that of eastern coastal China.

Within 5 to 10 years, the Town and Talent Member School Project plans to set up one thousand schools all over western China with “One Touch”operating systems enabled computer classrooms each has its own web-site.It also seeks to set up one thousand Digital Centers in western China. Through the Digital Centers, Town and Talent Technologies will employ 10,000 talents with computer and Internet skills.
