Abstract: The ‘new economy’ provides a fresh opportunity to enhance growth. However, to turn such prospect into reality, the postsocialist countries – unlike developed market economies – need not only aptly utilise the potential of e-business, but first raise efficiency of the ‘old economy’, since these two ‘economies’ are destined for a lengthy coexistence.
