 Dinámica de la difusión tecnológica en las economías desarrolladas y en desarrollo: un análisis de las tecnologías de información y comunicación (TIC)Technological diffusion dynamics in developed and developing economies: an analysis for the information and communication technologies (ICT)Adriano Cristian Gewehr (), Janaina Ruffoni Trez () and Alexsandro Marian Carvalho () Estudios Economicos, 2019, vol. 036 (Nueva Serie), issue 73, 71-107 Abstract: How are the diffusion process dynamics of ICT in developed and developing countries? The research was based on Bass model (1969) and used the empirical consumption data for the G7 and BRICS. The main results were: i) the model adjusted the diffusion curves with low error rates [.2%-5.1%]; ii) no direct relationship between the speed and development level; iii) developed countries have reached the inflection point in the diffusion process before developing countries; iv) in some countries only approximately half of the population will get access to internet. In developing countries, the process to capture new adopters is slow, and while developed countries are reaching saturation, in most of the developing countries these technologies still have potential for diffusion Keywords: difusión; innovación; países en desarrollo; países desarrollados; diffusion; innovation; developed countries; developing countries (search for similar items in EconPapers) Downloads: (external link) Related works: Export reference: BibTeX RIS (EndNote, ProCite, RefMan) HTML/Text Persistent link: https://EconPapers.repec.org/RePEc:uns:esteco:v:36:y:2019:i:73:p:71-107 Access Statistics for this article More articles in Estudios Economicos from Universidad Nacional del Sur, Departamento de Economia Contact information at EDIRC. |
