1) The document discusses the promise, challenge, and plan for grids for science and business. Grids promise excellent performance at low prices by sharing unused resources, providing peak availability without large investments. 2) While grids originated in academia in the 1990s, they now aim to be ready for business use by ensuring security, low barriers to developing services, and standardized interoperability. 3) However, challenges remain around technology maturity, security, assessing total costs and return on investment before businesses decide to invest in grids. 4) This workshop aims to address those challenges by raising awareness of grid successes, gaining commitments to grid usage, and creating added value for potential adopters
