Abstract: Abstract Business experience and literature suggest that mastering the use of ICT has become a core competency for pursuing competitive advantage and sustained growth in most industries and services (Chaps. 4 and 6). It is also likely to become a core competency in national development and in delivering public services, education and training, and even microcredit and poverty reduction programs. To realize this potential, the current focus on investment in physical infrastructure and hardware, and on isolated experimentation and piecemeal implementation must be broadened and scaled-up to address the policies, institutions, infrastructures and skills necessary for e-enabled business transformation and grassroots innovation.
