World Bank looking for muniwifi experts

The World Bank's Information for Development program has a call for bids:

The consulting firm (hereby referred to as ‘consultants') is expected to have expertise in development of management strategies, deployment of technology, and process services (including management consulting, design and project management) of municipal broadband networks, in developed and/or developing countries. Additionally, consultants with a proven record in the following areas will be considered: in-depth knowledge on public policy issues related to state/local/municipal governance; reputation and expertise in the above field amounting to 5 to 10 years of experience; high research capacity and ability to develop the Study and Toolkit.

You'd have 19 weeks to complete the task, at the end of which you'll receive US$90,000 and one of Bono's black t-shirts. (If you win, I of course get a 10% finders fee.) For more information, visit this pdf. [Technorati tags: wifi muniwif]
