Abstract: Abstract The group of innovations identified through the acronym ICT (Information & Communication Technology) allows (often quickly and cheaply) the digitalization, storing and transferring of information in any part of the world connected to the web. This change modified the geographic distribution of several value chain activities and made “merchantable” many kinds of services, overcoming some limits (like no-transferability) and changing some of their typical characteristics (e.g. the simultaneity between production and use, the closeness between distributor and user, etc.).
