Abstract:
Abstract The Internet and other new-economy technologies have provided tremendous sources of economic growth for the more advanced industrialized economies of North America, Europe and Asia. These technologies have also provided significant strategic tools for those companies adroit enough to discern their advantages, and capable of both adapting the technologies to their own purposes, and themselves to the new realities of their changed competitive environments. However, in more developed economies, advanced communications and computer technologies are pervasive, distribution and warehousing networks are generally extensive, fast and reliable, and though there are exceptions such as Japan, financial/credit networks are readily available and efficient. These technologies and the skilled work forces necessary to employ them provide the infrastructure needed to make the new-economy technologies so powerful. Unfortunately, these infrastructural elements do not exist in most emerging economies.
