Necessary Elements for Technology Growth
Overview
The global economy may have faltered in 2001, but advances in information technology and e-commerce continue to transform personal communication and global business at an astounding pace. Although these advances promise to bring a substantial percentage of the
world’s population online in the next five years, they also present significant challenges to industry
and policymakers alike.
According to NUA Internet Surveys, over 510 million people worldwide are linked to the Internet. Experts predict that global Internet usage will nearly double between 2000 and 2003, making
e-commerce an ever more significant factor in the global economy. Estimates suggest that by 2006, some 36 percent of all business-to-business (B2B) commerce will be conducted online.
