And we are hoping the cross-industry/ministry mean the same thing as
cross-community. I will think a community would be more encompassing than
industry/ministry which sound like a subset.

By "separate" meaning this effort is a preparation of the ministry/industry

NMI/NETMundial

If for the later, I will say again as I have previously asked, is anyone
thinking of developing region participation in all these
multiple/duplicated activities?... Maybe not!
